In my opinion, you should keep doing DAB course on paper and then you can use the other 50% to draw whatever you like digitally. Uncomfortable is a digital artist himself but DAB exercises are better done with ink on paper.
I intend on doing the full course with fine liner and paper, I was just wondering if doing them digitally as well would help me adapt better to the texture of a drawing tablet, or if it would transfer over naturally.
I tried doing the first lines exercise and found it more difficult digitally, so I figured I'd practice a few DAB exercises on it until I become more comfortable.
I appreciate the feedback though:)
While I have a massive library of non-instructional art books I've collected over the years, there's only a handful that are actually important to me. This is one of them - so much so that I jammed my copy into my overstuffed backpack when flying back from my parents' house just so I could have it at my apartment. My back's been sore for a week.
The reason I hold this book in such high esteem is because of how it puts the relatively new field of game art into perspective, showing how concept art really just started off as crude sketches intended to communicate ideas to storytellers, designers and 3D modelers. How all of this focus on beautiful illustrations is really secondary to the core of a concept artist's job. A real eye-opener.
