I spent the holidays watching Big Bang Theory and playing RE5. I haven't lifted pencil for the past week. It makes me wonder how my drawings will look like later on. I might doodle a bit and get to work on samples I've been meaning to finish.
2010 is aleady coming up, but I haven't improved much in drawing. Speed is still a bit underway, and if I don't improve a few notches up within the next week, I'm going to (once more) blow my chance at working on a comic book in the local scene.
I can work fast, but at the risk of warped figures and poorly composed scenes, panels and action. It still baffles me how comic book artists are able to create at least one page a day. Some even work on three comicbook titles a month!
Now, people have been telling me "You're too much of a perfectionist", but when I do try to compromise, my work ens up looking lower than mediocre. It's hard finding that grey area, being able to do something both of desirable quality an time production. It's annoying considering my art style is soo simple, and yet there are artists with higher caliber styles working much much faster...
If I don't hit it now, maybe in ten, twenty years, I will.
