Do the sketches to get a feel for digital and so you have a record of your improvement and a way to fuck around with what you're learning. Watch the ass basic video tutorials the company of your program of choice puts out to learn the features and what all of them actually do. Then watch and read all the quick tips for specific brushes and basic workflow setups you can find so you have an idea of different ways to do everything and can get the system to do what you want it to. I spent a month on that just to set things up how I like it.
Now you know the program unlike most of the people who use it and can not only easily learn from tutorials, but also call bullshit on blatantly shitty ones.
