If you're referring to the speed paints, they are heavily sped up from a raw recording, which is what gives them the title of speed paint.
my latest pic/collab that is.
took icudo and myself 13 hours to get that done together, 7 hours for me, 6 for her. spread out throughout the course of a month or more working on it when we could.
the speed paint with that collab pic is around 35 minutes, roughly 19-21x the original speed.
the black character in the pic, i coloured, took two hours for me to colour him, but that is partially since the res is much higher than i typically work with, almost twice what i'm used to, lol
i average from 2 hours to 6 hours on an image, the bigger, more complex the image, the more time it takes
a way to speed it along some digitally is to use the colour you want to have as a pelt colour, make a thick lining of the said colour inside your line art, and make sure you have no gaps in the colour lining, and simply hit the middle of that with a bucket tool, and then if needed, clean up the rough edges
i use photoshop 7.0 (2002 version) as my art app, icu uses clip studio
if you're looking for a 100% free app, gimp and kritia are pretty good, kritia is certainly better though
