I have just started practicing drawing for real. I want to improve my currently nonexistent skills and be able to create OC one day. Do you guys recommend me to practice drawing OCs right from the start? Or should I spend a good long time just attempting eyesight copying artists I like??

The best thing is the one that will give you the least burn out. If you like drawing OCs more then you'll have more passion for it and likely more improvement and will to keep practicing and learning.
also if you implement your OCs in your studies you'll probably get more invested in both of them.

>attempting eyesight copying
Not necessarily. You should never copy, but study. Study from life and understand how things work. Drawing OCs will keep the motivation up but it's important to supplement it with actual learning work (i.e. the work nobody wants to do).
draw every day.... all the time... look at your mistakes draw things you like that make yiou want to draw... . thats the best advice i can give you.
