Don't worry about perfection when you capture an idea!

One thing that helped me work faster & with confidence is getting ideas on the canvas fast and having fun with it. I scribble roughs for comics without worrying about perfection. The sooner I visualise an idea, the more it can grow in my mind.

Seeing so many companies and even artists using genAI is so depressing and makes me so angry. I hope it will die soon.

You really can see the money eyes in everyone using it, it's just pure fucking greed, that's it.
