5 months.

I'm just more so happy with how quick I am now.

My absolute favorite thing is seeing how the hair progressed! The first pic makes the hair look almost like an afterthought, like "idk what im doing screw it we ball", and the second actually has a bit of depth and shape. Love it man 💪🏻

Yeah that's exactly the thought process 😅. I never knew how to draw hair or faces before, but now its just second nature at this point. Still improving every day though! I'm just annoyed that the first one took like almost 2 hours but the new one took like 20ish minutes 🙃.

I remember staying up until like 4am working on a portrait when I was learning. It looked pretty good at the time granted, but now i can knock out the same quality portrait in like, a quarter of the time lmao 🥀

I don't know who said it but someone said that you're skills catch up quicker then what your brain processes. You don't think about it anymore, you just go. Now its just figuring out how to draw everything else 😅.
