>>4240929great, but I kind of want the look I achieve to be a product of the tools and materials I choose.
If you want to start your masterpiece with a new file in MSPaint, go for it, literally create any image your heart desires.
If you'd rather start within the confines of a blank canvas and some watercolours, also a fine choice.
I want to start with some 30yo Velvia in a giant fucking Mamiya boat anchor, and let that inform and constrain the process and the output, and focus my attention to details in subject or technique that would pass by if I was using a pocket camera or a digital.
