With the pep talk done, I should mention that I'm still stuck in a slump right now. It's hard to find a strong theme to draw from day to day so I ended up just thumbing through my tutorials folder until I found something that I'm weak on and practiced that.
Which is why I ended up drawing 100'ish mouths to improve my range of expressions.
The heads in the top left came from a tutorial I bookmarked forever ago at Cartoon Fundamentals: How to Draw a Cartoon Face Correctly The noses in the top right are from Proko's tutorial and the profile view is from a random tutorial I found on imgur.
More hand practice, because hands are hard. Like really hard. I also dropped in some loose cartoon work to try and grease the wheels for the three panel gag strip I'm working on for my next 757 Comic and Cartoon Creators club meeting.
I didn't churn out as many pages this week because I dropped another two hours into Krita and threw some time at mocking up a business card. If learning to draw is anything like learning a language, application is every bit as important as practice if not more so.

* I'm considering Friday to be the end of the week for tracking metrics so that it lines up with my summary posts.
** I had to use a some fuzzy math to figure the page count for some of my Kindle books since they only have location tagging.
