Seriously, this is really really good. You've already got great coloring and detailing, just keep going! I'll be watching you from now on, excited to see where you go with art
You've got skills for sure! Ah, when I go for a bit more realistic look, it can take days. Usually a bigger piece, full body or such, take more than 25 hours, but it all depends on the level of detail, of course. Really, there's no limit to how much time I can spend on a piece, the goal is to be satisfied, and for me that can take... a looong time. Don't know how much help that babbling was. Guess I'm trying to say is: realism takes a long time to get right, unfortunately. But then, I'm also a slow painter.
