Well, I'll double piggyback on them then. There will never be a replacement for traditional methods. Those are the fastest ways to throw ideas out and get them on paper. Both illlustrator & photoshop take a while to wrap your head around to get good results. You can take both of those software packages a LONG way. I personally do the 3D stuff as I find it interesting and fun. I also love Ben's work and have many times secretly wished I was him. If you were to hire someone, base it of the style of the work. Check each artist out and then pick from the styles cause we all have different approaches that yield different results.
