I have been using Clip Studio Paint and Photoshop to create illustrations for most of my life--though I started out on pencils and pastels, I gravitate toward digital artwork because it allows me to achieve a wider range of styles and depths, with room for error. My work is mostly portraiture, including characters from shows I've watched and books I've read. I typically start with a series of black and white sketches and work front-to-back to achieve my final piece (seen below).
