How many layers is too many?

Question for people who use computer programmes to make their art,how many layers would you say is too many?

I'd say five or 6 is my personal limit before I have to start merging or cutting,these are permanent layers I'm thinking about not temporary ones

I don't know, really.

Originally I tried limiting myself to three because keeping track of multiple layers seemed like too much, then I ended up using over twenty for one project and I had to admit it turned out better than any of my previous attempts. But most of them weren't actually visible in the final draft, and I'll probably be able to pare them down with more experience.

Discovering I've drawn and painted on complete the wrong layer has been a problem for me sometimes,which is why I've learned to clearly label each layer

If it's a decently sized chunk or has to be kept separate to be careful like glow effects, it warrants its own layer.

That depends. I'm on digital painting, and the file sizes from the Sketchbook app on my tablet makes it heavy from the layers and the resolution.

I usually have around 30 layers per drawing, but I've made some where I had over 100. It really depends on what kind of piece you're trying to make.

idrc how much layers i use

I have a habit of adding layers for each different color I fill in. Procreate limits the highest number of layers depending on how big the canvas is.
