packrat poll

[ratcreature]

I'm wondering what other people do with their preliminary sketches and stuff. For each actually finished piece of fanart I end up with a pile of more or less awful and hideous half abandoned sketches, rough composition doodles, sketches to work out body parts, perspective, color, textures, sometimes just a couple, sometimes dozens and more. I have packrat tendencies in general, so it is hard for me to throw things out, but otoh, what do I need a pile with failed sketches of mishapen half-finished stuff for, once I have finished the work?

So I'm curious what other people do:

(ETA: I didn't realize the crossposter would just link the poll, even though I can insert polls here too. I now included it manually here, or you can go to the DW version: View poll: packrat poll.
ETA2: Apparently one can't insert a poll when editing an entry? What? so I reposted here, sorry. *makes note to x-post polls manually the next time*)
