Then don't post if it's to say you don't draw. <_<

On a good drawing, I can easely spend at least 2 or 3 hours on it.

For the sketch about one to three hours depending on what I am actually drawing.

And at least 6 hours for the coloring.

When I sketch, I could be done in like, 5 minutes but it could take as long as 40. I usually don't color my pictures but if I do, it might take an hour or so to color them depending on what it is.

I have lot's of trouble at coloring... I prefer to not ink it and shade it instead and I sometime ink it but don't put color. I only got 1 pic that was colored in my galery.

By my side, I used normaly 1 hour or 1 hour and a half for the lead, and the same time for the color. I don't know why, it's always the same time... normally I don't do draft and I pass all my time on the every details.

It takes me from 1-3 hours to whip up a really good pic. I can make pictures in 30 minutes or less when Im not really caring about what it looks like. They usually turn out to be fairly decent drawings. ^_^

quick sketches for me takes about 3 minutes, sketches i work hard on takes maybe 30 minutes, and inking takes about an hour, colouring with pencil crayons take about 2 hours, and CGing takes probably over 3 hours <_<

I think once a picture took me 35(?)-ish hours. My computer kept crashing, too, because it had a crappy processor and I color at 600 dpi.

The most it took me to color was 4 hours, then again, I use markers and gouache, which are pretty darn fast medium, unlike colored pencils...

for quick colouring,I use colour pencils,takes me around 10 to 30 mins. If it were digital however,it would take hours,just the lineart and editing takes 4 hours.

I don't have a set amount of time for my art, but I can say I havn't spent longer than a day on anything. Usually like to get everything done in one sitting.

well, it really depends on what I'm drawing. Really, my range is about :

20 minutes to 5 hours.

I haven't had a 5 hr one in a looooong time though. The longest I've spent on a drawing (that is on this site) is about 3 hours..

This picture took me about 9 hours.
