Thanks Artloader, I might use that advice. In the past I never really tried for stroke economy, let alone in longer studies/ figure drawing sessions. I really treid to focus on that here... I spent around three hours on the face/neck study, first doing a drawover of the models, and then trying to recreate them on the side.
These were both done on my stream this morning! Woo! I'm so happy, I feel that more driven artists would make the creative side of twitch a better place and I hope to facilitate that- rather, help to do my part in making that happen.

1. Use the biggest brush possible for a given passage.
2. Paint large shapes first, followed by small shapes.
3. Save your tonal and chromatic accents until the last.
4. Try to soften any edge that doesn’t need to be sharp.
5. Take time to get the center of interest right.
Or, the briefer version: (B.L.A.S.T.)
Big brushes.
Large to small.
Accents last.
Soften edges.
Take your time.
