Traditionally, it just feels better, but I do like the freedom to warp and correct things with digital - though it's a double edged sword since I end up fiddling with my drawings far more because of this than I would with traditional.
So I suppose my favourite work method is digital sketching, traditional finishing.

>>7863637
Digitally because it's got a lot of convenience: brushes, colors, filters, the lasso tool and much more, it's all just too good to pass up, its a medium that allows you to be more experimentative in ways that traditional would otherwise punish you for.

That said traditional has one big boon and that's the natural feeling of your drawing tool of choice, be it a pencil, a brush or a pen. No matter how hard tablet manufacturers try not one of them has been able to replicate the comfort of use a traditional drawing tool provides

This was done by drawing bits traditionally and then scanning it into Photoshop for processing into panels.

>>7863637
I started drawing seriously when I got a tablet and now when I draw trad it's like I'm back to square one. I really fucked myself over with Ctrl+z spamming. It's like I never really learned how to draw.

>>7863686
A trick I recommend, rather than spamming undo, is to use the eraser tool instead - erasers exist in real life after all. You should probably learn not to chase perfectionism anyway, as I doubt your 'perfect lines' are all that much better than many of the flawed ones.

>>7863637
if I drew this and posted it in the /beg/ thread I would get crucified

>>7863637
i prefer the feel of traditional
the sensation of pencil/pen on paper just cant be matched by any digital means

And yet he had one of the most successful and recognisable comics of recent times, enough so that he probably could retire comfortably right now; and his art style was very influential at the time, with many copycats.

Goes to show you that many of the critics on this board just have a stick up their ass, especially with anything that isn't anime enough for them.

>>7863637
draw traditionally. paint digitally. I'd paint traditionally but it's a pain to set up and then store the paintings.(where do i store 5000 paintings?)

>>7863686
I was so bad I'd reflexively try to undo while drawing on paper, just keep going, you'll untard your brain

>>7863738
That's like one box of paintings, what are you even talking about?

>>7863743
>>7863738
Read it as 500, but it's a moot point, 5000 paintings is a lifetime of work for a professional artist, you're not gonna be a professional if you don't sell the paintings and you're not gonna paint 5000 of them if you do it as a hobby.

>>7863738
What's the point of making so many paintings if you're just going to keep them to yourself? Display them, sell them, give them away to friends and family.

That's because /beg/ is full of begs giving their opinions. This is a fine cartoon drawing, everything reads clearly, there's characterization, the characters are doing something other than standing in a void, and it has a pleasing distribution of darks. The begs on this site think "over-rendered digital painting of anime girl looking sexy" is the pinnacle of skill. They would scoff at something like picrel, a sheet of sketches of people observed on a street in Italy. Real artists recognize the skill required to capture the essence of a pose and the natural attitude of a figure in so few lines.

Whats the comic

>>7863744
I painted over 5000 digitally, as a hobby

a lot of them are worldbuilding/conceptart not pretty pictures

Paintings are made of paint. You haven't painted anything ever.

>>7863765
I painted traditionally for a decade before going digital.

>>7863766
So you must have 5000 paintings then, right?

>>7863766
>>7863762

>>7863768
No, back then I was a kid/teen, I did a painting a week if that.

>>7863773
wow, you've been painting since before you were a teen AND you have 5000 paintings not even counting the first decade? >>7863762

>>7863773
So you don't actually have a single non/beg/ painting lmao

>>7863760
>5000/365=13.7
Yeah, gonna need you to post your work.

>>7863787
I got my first tablet in 2003.

Sounds legit. Post your work.

It's Scott Pilgrim by Bryan Lee O'Malley, you've probably at least heard of it, if not seen the movie or game.
Not saying that the dude's art is amazing or anything, just that shitting on it for being 'beg tier' is kinda retarded, when both his work; and yes, his art; are highly beloved.
With projects like comics or games, I think there's a minimal viable product for art needed to accomplish the project, and simply slapping everything with the beg-tier level holds people back from starting projects they may have well been ready for. If you think O'Malley's art is rubbish now, you should see the art from the first volume of Scott Pilgrim, or his first comic "Lost at Sea", he really leveled up his abilities during his work on the Scott Pilgrim series.

When an artist is famous, people will make excuses for their art and pretend it's good

maybe digitally because i can spam color maps on my sketches and feel like an achromatic little kid who’s just discovered the cup of crayons, but sketching like mad in my tactile sketchbook’s like raising a monster with spit and lightning. i can’t choose.

Sour Grapes.

It depends on which tablet.
I mainly draw with an iPad and I have no problems doing traditional because the pencil is so accurate. It's why traditional artists naturally gravitate towards iPads.
Artists that mainly draw with Wacom suck shit at traditional because the Wacom stylus is treated like a mouse cursor, not an actual drawing instrument.

When the fuck are Scott and Wallace going to kiss? Everyone else in this comic is a flaming homo so Scott may as well join the party

That would be antithetical to the premise; the plight of the straight man.
It's a gay world, and we're all just living in it.

>>7863652
Opposite for me. Nothing beats doing a messy sketch in trad, but when it's time to make refinements and rendering I move over to digital because trad is far too tedious and punishing at that stage.

In terms of feel and aesthetic traditional just can't be beaten... but the options and convenience of digital wins it for me, also using a matte screen protector helped with the feel, and also using tool that replicate the look of traditional, I get the best of both worlds and it's nice.

I'm exclusively traditional, but I can't deny a growing jealousy towards digital artists, at least when it comes to casual drawfaggery or mock ups
Literally the only tablet I've ever interacted with was released in 2003 and I hated the experience. I still have it and still hate it when I use it. Has tablet technology improved to the point that it might be worth considering an upgrade?
The biggest thing I hate is the disconnect between what my hand's doing and the impact it's having (like my hand is on the desk but the impact is on the screen) but I understand that these days there are tablets with their own screen that are more similar to a 'drawing on paper' experience?

What makes me the most resistant is that trad art is sort of an escape from the digital world. I work with a very limited pallet and overwhelmingly stick to just a round brush in one or two sizes, but people are always banging on about different brushes in digital art so it just feels like a load of new shit I'd need to learn if it's gonna be a worthwhile investment.
idk, has anyone else resistant made the jump and found it to be worth it? Or should I just stick to trad?
