 Posted: Tue Oct 12, 2010 5:54 pm Post subject: So, I'm interested in buying a tablet |
 |
|
That's very cheap but decent. I want to draw like the images attached, but I've never owned a tablet (and I'm playing on using paint tool SAI.)
What's a really decent buy for what I'm looking for? I'm looking into Wacom products, but I don't know.. I don't want to buy the wrong thing.
Thanks.

1. Wacom is the only option. Don't bother looking at any other brand.
2. The Bamboo is a nice cheap model for casual artists, I got mine for $75. |

Damn, I didn't know they were so costly. I'm looking at this; but I'm not too confident though, I don't know much about it (nor do I have much cash). Would it be a decent buy for a beginner artist such as myself?

Touch only means you use your finger and no stylus... No wonder it's $30.
If you want to get a tablet, even for a beginner, you'll need to save up around $100.
And you could look at other brands, but it's nice to have pressure sensitivity and precision. |

Alright, I'm not gonna buy it for a while, so I'm not going to jump on anything quite yet. I'll keep looking.
EDIT:Looks like a really decent one, but I don't know...

Hmm yeah that could do, I'd say get it and try it for 30 days, return it if you don't like it? |

actually dont buy the bamboo it is shit.
buy the genius Gpen 4500 it is better than the bamboo and cheaper.
you can get it for 40$ and it has more levels of preasure, also it is same size.
the bamboo series of wacom is just a joke, if you are not going intuos4 it is not worth it.
based on own experience, the gpen 4500 was my old tablet. Now I have an intuos4 Large |
