The difference years make! The speedpaint below I probably did in a few hours. I did it to commemorate the purchasing of my Aiptek tablet, which at the time looked like it would make godly pictures because of its huge size. However, when you drew a line diagonally across the screen with a ruler guiding the pen, it wiggled back and forth. Moronically, the designers had never bothered to make sure the vertical and horizontal motion recognition worked syncronously.
As you can see, this piece made me struggle enough that even the eyes got shafted.

A year or so later, armed with a Wacom graphire, I took another go at fixing it. This one came about as a direct paintover. Probably an hour's work because all of the base "structure" existed.
Completed naught but 10 minutes ago (5 years after the original), 4 in about 1 hour and 10 minutes. Clearly the anatomy still sucks balls because I haven't done proper anatomical studies, but at least I've made some progress, right?
Drawn with a Wacom Intuos 9x12 and Blujarr's brushes.
