curious if anyone used any sort of drawing tablet.. that ones only 100$ im thinking about it

[CraYon]

I've always been interested in buying one to draw and whatnot. But I haven't had enough money :'( Maybe for Christmas

[Havoc411]

just get a scanner and draw on paper. less expensive and prolly easier. unless you wanna get all kinda of crazy effects with the computer

[Soar]

sitting down, push a button, and write; high quality straight on the screen


seems easier to me than writing on a sheet, loading scanner, scanning, then saving so you can edit some things

[i s r a e l]

i was gonna try to score a scanner for christmas but im gonna order alot of fucking markers instead,more useful.

[DjTerrestrialConcept]

Drawing tablet, GOOD!!!!

[blondeshady2001]

a bigger tablet makes for easier pic creation (more natural movement), just that whole money thing that bites ya in the ass everytime. you find anything half reasonable, post back.

[Nyc Sno]

looking through old posts and i found this ,this is pretty cool anyone have them how do they work

[sane013]

Its an amazing product.
Its just like drawing on a paper but than the lines come on your monitor (afcourse when you just start with it its a bit difficult and you have to get some feeling for it).
A friend of my got that pat and you can really make nice thinks of it.
I&#39;m searching for an image now so you can see what you can do what that thing

This character is made by a friend of my. (you can make a lot more complicator works what that pad to but you really need some skills to make amazing stuff).
You can also make graffiti with it.
nice to learn your street skills cuz when you are going to make a piece you first have to color the background. than the &#39;&#39;letter lines&#39;&#39; and than highlight. (if you understand it :P)

[trance]

i want this nerd shit

[sane013]

Beceaus you&#39;re a nerd or what?

[keys]

they are hell good you just got to get used to it.

Im getting a tablet pc which will be awsome&#33; (drawing on the screen)

[civicman]

nah stuff that develope ur stilez with walls much cheaper... ;)

[textathief]

if i had one i would probably b getting up on the net ...... a tag on every site.

[Fluffy Bunnies]

just get one the old fashion way... rack&#39;em
we used them at school and I say they are worth it... buuuut then again I am broke and too poor to afford one... steal one&#33;


But the ones at school we like, you can put a paper over it and it copies exactly what you do with it with normal pens or pencils. you can do the colors later if you wanted to. The cool part was that when you draw something, it starightens out ur uneven lines and stuff.

[Logikalone]

I have a 9x12 ntuos series tablet and love it. But I never did any graf on it though. Its mainly used for my freelance career and my independent studies at school in graphic communication and design. Expensive but so kick ass.

[Nasty_One]

i have one, mostly because i do alot of graphic design. i mostly draw my work on paper, then scan it in and retouch it with the tablet. it&#39;s useful for photo retouching as well.

[T R E O]

the table sounds nice but i dont have the money for it.

nice to have one,but wouldnt wanna drop a whole bill for it.

[Nasty_One]

it really was one of the few things that i bought for the computer that i think is worth it.

[umop 3pisdn]

Im getting a Gateway tablet pc. the screen rotates 180 degrees

[knowme]

doesn&#39;t really make a difference to the end result, but it makes life a bit easier (lends itself more to natural flair and flow).

You&#39;ve got a lot of programs to make that shit. I think you can Use photoshop or macromedia flash (with macromadia flash you can make the letters really easy.) and photoshop you can use to re-styl it

[toon_dragon]

nah, a 4&#036; sketch diary works for me....lol

Those things are spiffy. My friend let me borrow his once. S&#39;real nice.. but I still prefer paper and ink :&#092; Cheaper and you can actually.. y&#39;know. Hold it in your hands.. It&#39;s -the- original.

I do in fact own one of these. Here&#39;s the dl on them though.

Unless you&#39;re actually going to use it for something aside from graffiti, its a waste of money. I use it for my freelance graphic design projcets. My thoughts on it are as such.

Pros: Big upgrade from pencil and paper. A 100 gig harddrive now becomes tombs of pages to draw on with an infinite selection of colors. Great for tracing images to make vector art. Cheap for a graphic tablet. Great starter tablet.

Cons: High sticker shock for most. Doesn&#39;t respond like normal mediums. Learning curve to use is absurd. Pen is sometimes not as responcive as you would like. Small as fuck&#33;

The skinny: I&#39;ve been drawing and painting since I was six. On the computer the same amount of time. At 22, as a professional graphic designer, even I thought this graphics tablet was so so at best&#33; Don&#39;t expect anyone to be able to teach you how to use it either&#33; You get very basic instructions when you install, from there you have to struggle. I brought it into the office and the other designers looked at as if it was plans for a time machine.

I was most upset that the eraser function on the back on the stylus doesn&#39;t erase with varying opacity. I spent more time in the begining adjusting the opacity to get the effect I wanted than drawing&#33; Want to draw this tablet? Forget everything you know about drawing and then start with this.

For the 14 year old kid, learn to draw first before buying this tablet. Games suck ass to use this tablet with.

New designers that have never used a tablet before, you&#39;ll like this. Designers use to better tablets will be frustrated with this one. If you do purchase one of these, buy the larger version not the 4x6

fuck that shit MS PAINT 4 LIFE&#33;&#33;&#33;

[SCOPE2]

i have a tablet, but its the expensive one... its actually a laptop.
but anyway, it sucks, i hate the drawing tools, the shit is slow and hard to work with.

[RIFR-RTSK LA]

[stado]

i like them =) my dad has one and doesn&#39;t use it, and now i wanna have it.
i only see him once a month and forget to ask but i think i can have it =)

nice for photoshop and study and designing and shit =)
(wanna be a graphic designer when i&#39;m a big man :P)

[Brian Peppers]

Racked one from my school. Then i noticed i need software for it to work... then i just put it back. lol.

moral of the store, if you rack a tablet, do it from a store so you have the software.

[Kayone707]

or download the software from the website

[TheWarOnAndrew]

I bought mine for &#036;50 from someone and it came with Corel Painter X.

He might have stole it and pirated the software.

But for that price it was worth it.

[STATIS-ONE]

I Got The Wacom Intuos3 About 6 Months Ago
That Thing Is So Sick!
Its Like Writing With A Pen But Better Cuz U Can Erase.
Dont Even Bother Getting The Graphire.
The Intuos Is Wayyyy Better Its A Lil More Expensive But Its Worth Every Penny. I'd Marry It If I Could

[toke_wdc]
