Compare Two Creative Hobbies for Someone With Limited Time

You have looked at the starter kit twice and you are not sure. Before you commit the shelf space and the money, this compares the two hobbies on the things that actually determine whether you will stick with them: time to a first satisfying result, what it takes to get started, and whether the experience gets better or just harder as you improve.

Compare {HOBBY_1} and {HOBBY_2} as creative hobbies for someone with {TIME_AVAILABLE} per week and {SPACE_AND_BUDGET} (e.g. a small flat and a limited budget).

For each hobby:
1. Time to first satisfying result (be realistic)
2. Space and equipment requirements
3. Whether progress compounds (does getting better at it make the experience better?) 
4. Social dimension: does it work solo, or does it push toward community?

End with a verdict: which to try first given the stated constraints.
