You don’t have to switch to digital, your arts lovely if you ask me. I’m just thinking about it because it would make everything faster.

I think the mixed option would be interesting. I personally really like your traditional style but am really curious with what can get done with digital or mixed.

If I’m being honest, the most alluring part to me is the idea of drawing half of something and just copying it to the other side.

Looks like no active stylus support so no pressure sensitive you would have to use a dumb stylus the kind with the squishy end they can work but you would be better off getting a cheap screen less tablet

I’d say do what makes you happiest. If you want to explore digital art go right ahead! Just know that there’s a learning curve, it takes a bit to get the hang of.

Wacom is the best huion and xp pen are good but lower build quality if you have an amount you want to spend that would help narrow it down

In the long run it leads to neck and back pain you won’t feel it till your mid twenties or so

Once you get yourself a good graphic tablet, I recommend trying out Krita. Free, built from ground-up as a software for drawing. Been using it for five years now, even for some light photo editing and stuff that got printed and hung on a wall
