Art.
Gave up on buying and maintaining copics and just bought CSP. May have to switch to Krita at some point, but digital art is far more accessible than other mediums. Want a marker texture? The brushes for that are free, only real barrier is a graphics tabler.
I wanted to say to just buy Procreate for the iPad for $10
Then I remembered ipads are starting at $500 and that's without the pen. You'd have to pay another $100 for it
You can buy a good screenless tablet from Huion for less than a hundred, and it'll work with basically any laptop or desktop computer. Krita is free and has many of the same features as Procreate. =)
I have both and trust me, it's a lot harder to draw on a graphic tablet than to draw on a tablet
But of cause that's an option. I'm simply not an artist though. I suck at drawing
