From an interview:

"I do have the occasional personal piece that goes all the way to finish with traditional mediums, but all my professional work these days ends as digital. However, just as I mentioned that I try to avoid stagnation in my process, I do the same with the mediums I use. I’m currently reacquainting myself with acrylics and oils on canvas in order to get back in touch with the pleasure of texture and dirty hands."

Sounds like these Magnus/Solar covers are all digital
