[Terminal Devastation]

I wouldn't give up honestly. Sure your current method gets good looking results faster, but it really limits what you can do. Eventually you'll run into one that the technique won't work well, or you'll want to make something that doesn't have a drawing, and then you wouldn't have the techniques developed to pull that off well.

In other words, just hang in there some more, you may not get the results you want as fast, but when you do, you'll have learned enough to get better results overall. Since you'd also be able to fix anything that needed fixing in the the original image.

For example your current work seems rather long overall, like it was stretched up and down without stretching it sideways as well. The arm with the hand on her hip looks especially odd.
