The 50% is basically a minimum. You're welcome to spend.more than that on your own artwork. There's nothing wrong with taking 10+ hours on a piece. My longest was upwards of 40 hours.

Thank you. I was worried that I'm doing something that isn't allowed by the 50% rule.

Now I can draw peacefully! :)

It's too much time when you are not completing your major life responsibilities because of drawing. Apart from that, is it possible to spend too much time enjoying yourself?

Oh no, I didn't mean I'm doing 10+ hours in one session. Just as overall time across multiple sessions.

I was just wondering if it's allowed by DrawABox 50% rule, that's all.
