I cast Alacrity on myself

General
I think the reason I'm so slow when it comes to thing is the tendency to overanalize everything.
I've been doing rough pose sketches on both my computer and a notepad, and I've liked how I can get a rough figure out in 30 minutes or less. Least it's visualised, and I can work with it when I want.
I'm also going through some slight subject shifts. Some of the things I'm working on are... well... somewhat outside of what I'm used to:
*Croc belly dancer with chakrams (Reptilian experience)
*Obligatory Tauren Art (Male form, Prominent muscle structure, Dongs)
*Gift Arts for some friends
*Perspective and foreshortening experiments
*Background experiments
*Using 3D as props for character pose, placement, and blocking (Idea I picked up from Susan Van Camp at FCN).
*Fur Layering (From Dark Natasha at FCN. Going to try something in Photoshop to get a similar effect)
It's stuff like this that makes me glad I've dropped wanting to work for a pay site. I don't think I'd have that much room to experiment with things if I worked for one.

FA+

Side note: Susan Van Camp and Dark Natasha are EPIC.
