Like MB said, I wouldn't be too concerned about milestones. One day, you'll just notice "Hey, that drawing came out rather nice this time!" and that'll be a milestone.
I also wouldn't be counting hours and days unless you're going to do it like Sheriff Van the tax collector for a Greedy Prince John (Disney's Robinhood). The more the better, like eating your favorite snack, just keep thinking that, and never let the word "enough" enters your mind.

There was a time when I did notice drawing improvement. That was way back when I was a student, drawing everywhere and every spare moment (on bus and waiting for class to start), and everyday without weekend or "day off". It was my way of being different and venting my teenage thing. That was probably at least 6hr/day, 7day/week, 52 weeks/yr until I finished high school. That was the time when I remember noticing improvements here and there. Now, I just notice de-improvement and rust from all the lack of maintenance on my hard-earned skills from back then.
