Paint or Sculpt concept for 3D Model?

Slothfuldrake

Im a 3D modeller who want to quickly develope my own prop/environment/character concept before modelling. My skill level in both Digital Painting and Sculpting is beginner, i feel a bit more comfortable with Zbrush though. Which path should i take and what are the pros and cons of the 2 tools?

There is a youtube channel called cubebrush. The guy there uses models in his concept illustrations. I think a great way to work is to take a screen of a base form, puting it on a layer and paint on layers over the top. A great way for testing ideas. Anyhow I reckon it would be a handy skill to develop in addition to modelling. Below is are studies I made while ago using that technique.
