@ username: I don´t think it´s too little focus on the end goal as that is mostly always clear to me, but it´s more that I try out too much, if I don´t like it, redo that rinse and repeat. And that leads to too much time wasted. So it´s more a lack of focus on how to achieve what with what means.
Rendering as a "finishing approach" to create a highly polished detailed image is as you say a joke, or let´s put it more neutral: just icing on the cake as it´s just a more or less mindless task anyway. What I meant is rendering as a tool to depict form through value and color. I do get the 3D forms, I just need to make it more pop. Learning shapes, perspective and all fundamentals is of course key and I guess I´ll never stop learning that :)
