Am I the only one who can't stop adding more and more details to my drawings ? I just finished an artwork I wanted to make very simple with a simple background but I ended up spending 17h 40 min on it and I'm still not satisfied... Why am I like that ๐Ÿ˜ญMay 2, 2021

You're not alone- even though I've finished it I feel like there's something missing about it, spent time on adding unnecessary details, only to end up undo-ing all of them for digitals, or cry in regret for traditional ones เผŽเบถโ€ฟเผŽเบถ

This is me all the time, Iโ€™m so glad Iโ€™m not the only one.. I will think itโ€™s finished then notice something I need to amend or add and it keeps repeating ๐Ÿ˜‚

I know that feeling too well. XD and every time I say to me โ€ždonโ€™t do this much details to the next drawing. No one will ever see all of them.โ€œ and what happens? Yes. More details. XD
