they need to be considerably bigger cause they are sometimes used for marketing purposes and such D: all in all i think it’s mainly the problem of my personal perfectionist ambitions /sob

thejotaku said: Why not try drawing smaller instead of larger? I mean obviously you’ll be forced to not include as many details, and then you can see how it looks then? Ooorrr if you need it to be high quality, draw with the image shrunk down?

yeah drawing with the image shrunk down sounds like a good idea. i really need to control myself better hehe ;A;

that’s basically what i do at first but in the end i get caught up in said details and refuse to finish till it looks decent to me lol.. i make a terrible employee
