Oh thank you so much! The figure coloring was so fun! I'm going to do another figure for my next drawing I think, because I really want to keep practicing with skin tones.

I completely relate to what you said about perfectionism - especially your comment about being intimidated by a something you made that turned out nice! I've noticed that sometimes I'll watch videos of people drawing or painting and they get to a point where I'm thinking in my head "it's perfect omg it looks so good stop right there or you'll mess it up!" but they keep going and they usually make it look even better. I suppose part of practicing and developing as an artist is having the courage to keep going on potentially mess up something that was good in order to make something great.
