@Starflight48r2_ Hey, it used to take me weeks also 20 years ago, it's totally normal and it's a good practice to take care of all the steps.
The speed comes with time, removing bit by bit what's unnecessary and building automatism for part of the process.
You don't need to paint with a clock or anything to increase it, it just build up with practice and time, IMO. Having a webcomic with life around and deadline for sure really made me reconsider my time budget on each panel 😅
@davidrevoy how do you time budget around normal adult life stuff?
