I've mostly used Adobe Photoshop for digital art programs but I recently picked up Clip Studio Paint since it's more geared specifically toward illustrators and comic artists. While a lot of things are similar to Photoshop, it's just different enough to be frustrating, and this book has helped a lot in my transition, as it explains everything in simple and concise terms. It's easy to understand and has a lot of information packed into it, so I highly recommend this book for people that want to get the most out of the program!
