logansrogue- Get the line that you want down and leave it. Don't muddle with a line. You want the line to go down right in as few strokes as possible.
- Pick the colour you want and go with it. Don't fuck with it. If it's the wrong colour, either let it dry, or press undo and pick the right one. Muddling with colours leaves it muddy.
- Don't overdo a piece. The biggest mistake people make is to do too much to a work and kill any immediacy or energy they might have in it.
- It's okay to be sketchy. Photorealism is NOT everything!
- Less is more. No really, in most situations this is true.
- It doesn't have to be perfect. Just try to finish every piece.
