Been thinking about doing some comms here and there, but idk what prices are good. Doing the quick drawings is nice but I need to keep up with my slower higher quality stuff too.
Also want to play WoW again for the Legion event but I know that'll slow me down a ton.

Had troubles with this one, had to push myself several times to not fix everything and just get it done. 3h since I kept trying to go and fix things. Still acceptable for two characters.
Hard to get the quality I want when going quick. Might get better over time.

Idk exactly how long it took since I got distracted a lot. Wasn't too long at least.
It feels like Tosia's too big, but I think it's mostly the figure. Sketch looked fine, but doesn't seem right now that it's done. Janine's always an issue to draw, idk what it is.

2h~. For one character that would be a decent time for me, but for two it's really good (Relatively). Trying to change my mentality going into it more than the drawing part itself. Need to try and make it consistent.

Hanna (OC)
First attempt at a chibi style. Still ran into the same snags as usual, but it's way simpler so it wasn't as much of an issue.
Should do the rest of my girls like this over time, interested in how I'll do something like Vivi's legs.

WIP
Thought about doing it all today but I know I'd get burned out. The sketch+lines took 4h~. I went out for a bit which messed up my timing, so 4h is my lowball guess, might have been 5.
Still trying to not care about the minutiae and just be quicker, but it isn't helping much.

Since returning home one of the things I've been doing is drawing less per day as art is one of my biggest stressors. It was fine at first but now I'm getting really stressed that I'm not drawing. I also get scared to start since it takes so long.
2.5h to do 2 bad sketches sucks.

Talmire @talmire.bsky.social · 7d

Been trying hard to be more simple with sketches. Might start ok, but after a short while it starts turning into messy placeholder lineart again, and once it does I can't stop it.
Attempting differing heights gives me issues too. Any guides I try look weird every time.

Mostly leg practice, or lower half in general.

The Howling Dark (OC I guess)
The only of my "Gods" that I've drawn, did them once last year as well. Very easy compared to the others, though I want to try some of them eventually.

Halena sketch (100oj)
Not sure if I'll finish it, I'll decide tomorrow. Trying to ease back into it but ended up doing more than I expected to.

Yeah, still unsure if I consider it dumb but I'm reevaluating things for now.

Talmire @talmire.bsky.social · 11d

I'm back. It was only 6 days but felt like a month. Started warming to it over time, but there was so much dead time where there was nothing to do and it was eating at me. The "Help vs Nothing At All" ratio was too lopsided.
Not gonna draw right now, give it a couple days.

Being sent to a hospital for a while, mental health related. Not sure how long. I'm fine physical health wise. No art til I'm out i guess.

4h~. Been trying new things to be faster and idk if it's doing much. 4h is pretty consistent when I go as fast as I can, but that used to be for colored ones. Now it's that slow for greyscale.
Drew it really small and had troubles with any detail because of it.

Practice (OC)
Been a while since I've done 3 things at once.
Never drew Chiyo's wings before. Wanted to stylize the webbing, but it always looked odd so I left it more normal for now. Probably do more with them some other time. Played around with her clothes bit, too.

Practice (OC)
Still unsure on doing Tosia's eyes, any shape I try feels a bit off. She's slowly become the one I have the most issues with.
Finally have something of Vivi with her glasses on that looks alright.
Tosia took 4h, which would be an ok time if it had color, but it doesn't.

Janine (OC)
Looks alright, a bit off what I wanted but close. Thought I was making good time for the most part, then looked at the clock and it was 8h so never mind. Lines+flats are the biggest culprit again.

Hanna (OC)
Went about how I wanted. A bit over 2h, mostly because of the simple clothes and limited "colors," with just 3. I've noticed adding the flat colors has been a big slow point along with the lineart. Took a bit of extra time to add the bg, but not much.

Been starting to draw later in the day. My mind is trying to push it back and avoid it. Going out more, playing games, reading, it's not helping. Making it worse.
If I'm not drawing I feel awful. When I am drawing it's also bad, but I need to do it. Either my girls live or I die.

Didn't have much time but wanted to get something done. Hadn't drawn her in a while. I decided not to do the face to save some time and everything goes so much better, fancy that.
