I like the pencil version more. You should really get in there with a heavy pencil, or charcoal, and work those lines. That's just me though.

My teacher is always telling me to go darker and it's so hard for me

I always mess up drawings by going to far so when I like where I am going I am hesitant to finish. I have so many unfinished pieces

You said you hesitate because of the fact that your afraid of having to redraw the piece...
You know what Jeseabell, The more you draw, the better..and I know this sounds stupid, but throwing away an entire image because of one mistake, means
that eventually, the dedication, blood, sweat and tears show through your work, and through that, confidence in yourself and your art will grow.

So, to truly become the very best of what you are capable of,
you need to push your limits, draw when everyone else has left,
redo work even with one flaw, even if it's been 2 hours of work wasted, those two hours were never really wasted.

but anyway, I'm by no means a great artist, these are just some things I have thought out for myself.
sorry if I sound like I'm preaching to you, I'm just throwing in my bit.

I don't think your preaching I take feedback well

I just take a long time to draw, it's my greatest flaw

My approach to drawing and sketching even digitally is much like sculpting I mold my lines time and time again till I get it right,
It's a long process,
It's why I like charcoal to much with a needed eraser it so easy to clear a mistake and still have a no permanent visual.
Unlike other mediums.

hmmm,

good point on the charcoal, I on the other hand hate it,
it's either that I'm too clumsy with it, or I never fully understood the ways of working with it...
or some lamenting childhood fear of charcoal drawing??? I dunno. =DDD

Taking a long time to draw, is like taking a long time to type out a sentence on a keyboard, practice make perfect, and all that matters are where you place the strokes...well, that and a cunning eye for the right stroke at the right time..unless they develop some miraculous spell check for artists..

anyway, I talk too much nonsense to make sensible sentences this time of the morning.

Thanks for taking the feedback well, I could use your too you know!!

I should actually sketch something or one of the new topics....

To your point Helix: I disagree, a practiced typist is like an efficient machine, the quicker you can type the more money the corporation is making on your time. where as a slow drawn out lazy line that takes days to draw could be thought of as likened to a coastal line which can't even be effectivly measured and is open to interpretation! Taking your time with a line or a drawing can bring those coastal aspects in to play with depth hidden in the combination of the lines and forms to explorer deeper every time you revisit the piece! An architect can hurry the assembly of his blue prints, but the evolution of a drawing cannot be rushed.
