Abandoned because I felt ashamed for using the symmetry tool. It's a crutch I have to grow out of.

sounds like you want to train yourself to do symmetry freehand.

thanks haha, in cases like this one, I notice a mistake i made, realize i didn't manage my layers correctly and have characters/materials/lighting separated into random layers because of some misclick i didnt notice i made 50 undos ago. it becomes a suffocating and tiresome process of trying to fix mistakes, merging layers, redoing masks so I just say fuck it and go next.

Layer management is such an underrated skill, it makes correcting mistakes a lot less demoralizing and suffocating on more ambitious pieces.

I never abandon work,merely refocus my efforts. Anything that makes it out of my head onto media is a win and the lessons learned from its creation reason enough to justify its existence.

But some projects just eat time,like this one. I drew the figures first,liked how they came out so I tucked a background around them,an excuse to imagine that castle with its prow poking like a penis at the camera. It began in pencil, and I decided to use black gel ink pen to darken spots and bring out details. But I had to arbitrarily call it finished just so the other 20 hours of polishing can be devoted to new projects.

>realize i didn't manage my layers correctly
happens a lot when you get carried away early on. It is best to merge or flatten once you're done with a layer/group of layers

If I don't finish a drawing in one session, I simply abandon it and can't continue. When I try to continue, the drawing ends up wrong; the lines no longer feel the same, and it no longer has the same energy. How can I avoid this? There are drawings that simply can't be completed in one session.

Take frequent small breaks to refresh your eyes as you draw instead of getting so far into it and drawing yourself into a corner.

It's also a symptom of lacking fundamentals, or your artistic eye developing faster than your skill level. You have to push through it.

You can try learning visual measuring and do some bargue plates. Try to do 4 hours one day a week at least, and just do it until it looks the same as the reference. Follow the steps. This kind of thing is what broke me of the abandoning habit. Nothing is quite like the hell of bargue plates and cast drawings. It is slow and tedious. Finishing regular drawings feels good in comparison.

It was my first attempt at drawing these characters with details, and I had only invented them a couple of weeks ago.
It wasn't finished, and the only thing I said when posting it was that it might get a background. But crabs will be crabs,and they never condescend to posting their own work to show the rest of us how it's done properly. But it's abandoned, like the storyline it spawned from.
