Hehe, I know what you mean. My images still take ages, even my sketches!
I think it's just down to overall knowledge really. Am sure our speed will pick up once we get more comfortable with Photoshop and art in general! At least I hope so, if not I'll have to make sure I find very patient clients in the future! ^^
If you want to practice the hard and soft edges I suggest just sitting down and trying to do some quick studies on various environment photos. Just find simple ones with very little going on, but a clear definition between soft and hard edges like say a desert scene with hard rocks jutting around the scene and just try to emulate the overall 'feeling' and depth of the image in your own style.
Reference images are always good to work from or just have handy for inspiration or clarification =)
Best of luck with it! Would love to see it as it progresses ^^
