I actually got it backwards ak over the past 2 years I've been focusing on traditional mediums, check my DA in my sig's link. It wasn't until recently that I was able to full incorporate my refined traditional skills into digital. for a long while now I've felt %100 confident with oil and pencil, but was always :S with digital. but after about halfway through my last big painting and LOTS of studying was I able to finally fully grasp the digital medium. I needed to forget all preconceptions about digital art and completely humble myself to the basic professional techniques, and then I also had to fully understand my own lighting and brush style. It's been one hell of a journey full of massive amounts of self-hatred, artistic loathing, practice and understanding. But I finally feel like I'm "there" and can do anything.
