Writing is definitely an art. one I'm actually okay with, I just hate doing because being descriptive with words is hard for me, whereas doing it with color and composition through visual art, is much easier.

That I definitely understand. Sometimes doodling what I'm trying to describe helps, but not always, ESPECIALLY if it is a battle scene. Those are unreasonably tough. @ w@;;

OH GOD Battle scenes. I always want to make it seem like there's all kinds of flashy shit like reaction commands and stuff, but I feel like keeping it simple with the fight Kira has, actually was more realistic.

Pretty much. If you can't go big, find a ground that you're comfortable with. Big battles are interesting reads only if they make sense, but a simple sword fight between two people can be just as exciting when written in a way the reader can understand. Hell, the arguments in some of the books I've read can be some of the most intense things I have ever read.

Right, everything has a place. The fight between Bird and Fonz would probably be the kind of thing to draw out: Every strike can waiver along with their emotions, creating a true sense of the tug of war between two hearts. Whereas, dealing with some random guy that showed up...not so emotionally strung.
One of my big problems is conversation. Seeing "He said" or "X replied" Gets...repetitive.

Usually you can find lists online that offer alternatives. A thesaurus can also help.
Mmhm. Certain events need more attention to detail than others. That is how you point to readers that it is an important event. I'm not saying you need to explain every little thing, but it helps if it is more vivid than a standard scene.

True, true, but I guess its my structure that needs work. As it is, I needed to read an article so I could make portraying character thoughts less of an annoyance and give it flare. I had no idea how simple it was to convey thought without using italics or saying "this person thought". Some stuff, they just don't teach you in school.

Eh... Depends on your courses I guess. One of the best way to learn though is grab a book and read! Use a pen, or sticky notes if you're a book purist, and mark up and make notes of how other authors do things.
For thoughts, I'd probably look at Charles Dickens. His books are tough reads, but almost all of them work with the mind of the protagonist while remaining in 3rd person. If you have the patience, Great Expectations shows this off. The book is fairly dry and quite long, but a good example none the less.
If you want a more disturbing twist on writing thoughts (or even narration and imagery), you could always try Conrad's Heart of Darkness. Fair warning, while being a short read, it is highly disturbing and pretty damn racist due to being an older book.
For action scenes, young adult novels would be a good starting place. The Harry Potter series is pretty detailed for fights if memory serves.
After that, I'd probably start poking around war novels or anything under similar genres. You'll get both action and some other themes that would be interesting to write on, like mental and emotional trauma.
Sorry for the long response. ;w;
