you’ll never be able to perfectly erase anything like you can in digital lmao
No no it’s the fact I can’t move things around and resize,

Like oh, cool hand you drew there too bad it’s the wrong hand gotta redraw it buddy 😐
My greatest pain
OH MY GOD YEAHHG
no Ctrl+Z and you eventually have to restock materials.

and while you can use a mirror or take a pic of your sketch and flip it, it's more difficult to see how that flipped version is turning out WHILE you work on it. (doesn't help that the only mirrors i have are about the size of a credit card 🤷‍♀️)
You can always use a mirror during the sketch phase
You can’t ctrl+z either
You can’t recover a sketch from beneath the ink of some shitty lineart that came about after your hand slipped or something
or make a photo and flip it
hold it in front of a mirror
