The other day I slept. It had been 2 days since doing so. In that time is when I started the new pic for Ash, and I also sketched this out and colored it. It’s one of my characters, if you remember seeing me post her before. Adding it to Tumblr before I see all of the errors.
I discovered drawing without sleep does two things for me:
- Significantly reduces the time it takes to do anything, including sketching, applying colors, and details. It almost feels “natural” because of how quickly it all comes together.
- Impairs my ability to see critical problems.
I wonder if it’s worth staying awake for more often, sacrificing accuracy for vision and overall performance. Hmm..
