I've only done 88 now and it's been 4.5 hours since I'd begun this post. I can see the writing on the wall as far as reaching my goal for the day. I feel like I need to approach this with a bit more organization, and self-awareness regarding some of the things that have held me up so far - including a final decision on just what details to include or omit from the drawings themselves. I'm going to call today a failure, scrap the current attempt and start again from scratch soon, possibly tomorrow. I will still be drawing and studying hands intermittently all day, just not with a particular goal in mind. My poor results and the resulting butthurt I suffered are proof enough that I'm on the right track as far as what I should be drawing, anyway.
