I suppose it shows my immaturity, but I get terribly impatient when drawing. I don't care much for the process, I just want to get the idea out on the canvas. This results in much sloppyness.

How do I fight it? Any recommendations?

I'm the same xD
I only doodle and sketch things. I only work seriously on things when I'm inspired or have a powerful reason to do it (like and assignment or paid work).

My suggestion is that you sketch/speedpaint a lot and keep saving your sketches somewhere.
Then when you feel you have time and patience to go through a whole picture, pick one of the sketches you have, look at images from artists you like/admire and try to do something of that "level". Working on and off helps too, but don't let it drag or more than a week, or you'l end up hating the piece D:

When drawing something, anything, USE REFERENCES!! Use your Google-fu!
Don't trust your memory, and don't blindly trust what others teach you either.
Research, observation, analysis, experimentation and practice are the key! (:

Make connections... keep a folder for every idea, project, and write everything down, no matter what.

@luminarious: I have that problem too sometimes x.x I think sometimes it helps (me, at least) to get something down on paper, even if it is sketchy, and then go back sometime later and refine it and do more work a little at a time so you don't get too tired of it.

Speaking of sketchy...

Quick character design sketch for a game I'm working on. I think that's quite possibly the best mouth I've ever drawn, actually.

I actually really like your style, it's very unique.

Edit: I was going to post stuff here, but then the spoiler tags didn't work. One moment while I try to figure this out. @_@

Edit 2: Sorry, it's looking like I can't get the spoiler tags to work, so you're stuck with links. Could someone try to help me figure out what the problem was...? I would really appreciate it.

Sketches:

Sketch version of one of the things I colored -
http://i45.tinypic.com/11ad7qt.jpg

Just a quick request that I never colored -
http://i47.tinypic.com/282hkdt.jpg

An attempt at realism, with bad scan quality -
http://i47.tinypic.com/2vt8uf7.jpg

And semi-realism -
http://i49.tinypic.com/2wcfrrn.jpg

Colored Things:

The first picture in the sketch section, colored badly with a mouse -
http://i45.tinypic.com/s402oj.png

And the last picture in the sketch section, colored not as badly, but still with a mouse -
http://i46.tinypic.com/33210di.png

Also, before anyone asks about that last picture, it's not of a creepy druggie. Creepy mad scientist is more accurate.

I just recently started coloring. That first one in the coloring section is actually my first attempt at it in years. So any help would be awesome.
