@DicusMaximus Are you a traditional or digital artist?

@theFlow Yeah, but it been a while since I did some traditional art.

@DicusMaximus hopefully this doesn't sound obscure to you, but did you find it difficult when you transferred your skills, from traditional to digital? I can draw a perfect ellipse on paper (using the ghosting method), but, digitally, i suck. I use a small Wacom tablet, and ostensibly, according to people online, it would be preferable if I had a bigger tablet. Any suggestions on how to overcome this hurdle?

@theFlow The hardest part was muscle memory/coordination. Drawing/writing on paper feels most natural (the grip, texture, etc).

Like all things, it takes time and effort spent to get used to until it feels natural too on digital.

@theFlow Also, one of the nice advantages I found with a drawing tablets, is that you don't have a hand obscuring your screen at all times.

@DicusMaximus when you learnt to draw, did you focus on drawing traditionally or digitally or did you do both at the same time?

@theFlow Roughly 7-8 years ago. Started with traditionally. All you need is a pencil, paper, and dream.

Then transitioned to digital over time.
