Reminds me of "Metalium's" first album cover.

Ooooh... very imaginative way to portray the digital vs. traditional argument! Also an epic and well-done piece.

Iยดd like think it would be a tie... each one have their pros...sometimes the digital media have some apps to work faster on your pics (bless the mighty Ctrl+Z ) but the traditional way is something you can do anywhere too... also depends of how you want offer/share your pics with the world or how your client (well, of you seel them) want the original pic... i think all depends on what technique, experience, hability and effort you put on them, then you can make your pics look awesome no matter what

BTW, this is just an epic win , it shows perfectly the eternal battle between these two kind of options

Neither. There will always be a place for both so long as technology exists and until there are cyber brain-to-image implants in one-year-olds. Either day will be a scary one.

Nyee!!! Don't fight! They should be friends ;u;
Like, lot's of people do the stuff in traditional then edit it with softwares and stuff.

im laughing so hard, not at the art. but the fact that i quite literally JUST told my sweetheart, "should i save up for a cintiq tablet, or stick with pencil, paper and a scanner?" then i stumbled upon this xDDD Great job on this piece man!

EnigmaticPhilosophy [2013-07-10 23:28:25 +0000 UTC]

I'd say it's pretty even, both formats have their pros and cons. The thing is that most artists have to start out traditionally anyways, because digital art in general is very heavily based on traditional methods.

Lyrically-Sadistic [2013-07-10 23:05:30 +0000 UTC]

Digital reminds me Judge Dredd and Traditional reminds me of Ian McKellen.
Really a great portrayal and humanization of two different mediums, although I daresay they are not truly at odds with each other; the digital medium may be extremely popular, but after the power goes out it ceases to exist. Traditional methods of art can never really die, though we might pass them up in favor of the easier, cleaner and more versatile tools of the trade at present.
Congratulations on your Daily Deviation, Forrest!

Welll, I'm on the exact center of both XD
Traditional art is great, but digital is great too, I just can't let them finish "STOP THE FIGHT!!!" XD

I love the concept, the old traditional knight vs a modern digital soldier, it's just great ^^. And those details in the ground. Yep, you deserve very much the DD, and congrats ^^

I love this concept. It is so well rendered that I did not notice the tools as weapons at first. I am having a hard time deciding who would win. Both characters look quite fierce.

I also have to add that I find it ironic that this is drawn digitally. But that doesn't destroy the epicness.

Perfect execution. I really like the image and the dynamic movements of both Traditional and Digital.
The cheering audience and the knights and the brush on the ground add a nice touch.
Amazing piece, definitely deserved the Daily Deviation.
Congratulations!

I'm a traditional artist, but I like digital art as well as traditional work. You can achieve awesome things with both, so I can't decide.
But in this case of a death match, I'd go for traditional.
