My newest Blender project I completed a few days ago. Made entirely in Blender with a smidge of touching up in Photoshop! It didn’t end up how I envisioned it in my head but I’m still pleased with the result regardless.

Oh wow! Impressive that you did this on the fly!
I feel you on wanting to make things straight from your head, it feels closer to art as a mode of creative self expression.
I have found though, that visual planning and collecting references (even if it’s just like, the color of light from one painting, the texture of an ancient piece of pottery, etc. ) actually gives you more opportunities to be creative and helps build a visual library in your mind that you can draw from in the future. It is a lot of work, though, and feels like it slows you down at first.
Maybe you can try it and see if you like it?
I’ve recently started to use references and keeping notes of things I want to do, so that’s been a relatively new addition to my workflow. It has certainly helped a lot.
