I also game on this PC, so my keyboard is a Corsair K70 RapidFire.
Design
My main painting software is Adobe Photoshop CC.
At Naughty Dog I also use Adobe Animate for UI.
For complex scenes with lots of architectural elements I use MODO and mock it up in 3D first, then paint over it in Photoshop.
I also use a couple add-ons with Photoshop: Lazy Nezumi is a brush smoothing tool, and Kyle Webster's brush sets are the only brushes I use now.
Media
I also can't get anything done without Hulu or Netflix running in the background, or good podcasts to listen to like My Brother My Brother and Me or Adventure Zone.
Other
For my home set up, I'm a PC user, running Windows 8.
