It all depends on what you want to use it for.

I almost exclusively work with Illustrator because I love the pen tool, and use it the most for all of my art. The photoshop pen tool is quite limited in what it can accomplish, and I like the fact that I can scale my art to any size I want without limitations.

Now, if you want to work on manipulations, or digital painting like Kodybell, then photoshop is the program you want to use.


Figure out what style you love to work with, and use the program that is designed for it.
