*sigh* I do struggle with perspective. The really annoying thing about it is that when I really slave over a drawing, trying to get it right, it usually doesn't end up looking any better than when I just slap something together and tweak it a little in Photoshop.
I do, however, seem to have gotten over my Kismet art block. Which is good. What I really want to be doing right now, however, is reading, which is bad. I finished "Fire & Hemlock" this morning over breakfast, so now I only have one DWJ book left in the pile -- and the library's out of anything except 2nd and 3rd books of series, so now I have to buy them myself, which should slow me down somewhat.
If I look at it a certain way, I can *almost* justify all this reading time as research. The particular type of book I've been reading lately correspond almost exactly to the general style and reading age level that I'm aiming for with my new project ... Top Secret Comic Project, (TM), details to be discussed later. Reading these books is giving me a good idea of how far I can push the envelope without getting into parental-objection material -- pretty far, apparently.
