    remember kids if you don't have a mouse use your laptop touch pad. that how I started digital drawing while taping my pinkie with and icecream stick just to move the canvas with arrow key to reduce the pain in elementary school to wacom pen table from my middle school savings to hunion kanvas 13 with my sweat, tears, and blood money from commission in college

    I have been using the same Wacom Intuos Pen & Touch Tablet for over a DECADE ! Finally purchased a screen drawing tablet this past Christmas. I'm not gonna lie, having a screen tablet really motivates me to draw BUT it does not make my art "better." No matter what art supply you have, just MAKE ART and have fun !

    i used to drool over cintiqs.
    after i used an ipad since the first ipad pro i've never touched my pc to draw. panning rotating and zooming with my fingers feels like im drawing on paper. especially with a matte screen protector. I would move to samsung if they had procreate. can't live without it.

    at least im not the only one who started drawing on a tablet on the samsung galaxy 10.1 art (i mean i have the newer one but still :D)
    i started drawing tho with my finger on my phone and have only recently got a 10 year old tiny graphics tablet :) (ive defo seen a massive improvement in my drawing tho!

  • @shiny2575
    @shiny2575 6 місяців тому +1

    Ive been dreaming of getting a tablet mostly for drawing for over a year, and last month i finally got a tab s7+. It really does help, drawing with your finger on your phone can make you beautiful piece, of course, but if you want long, thin and beautiful lines or just a decent program like krita, you gotta go with the tablet. I dont feel the need to get an actual, drawing only tablet for artists, even if i had all the money in the world.

    I once felt like having equipment could help me improve, but I quickly fell out of it due to not having money as I was just a teen. I have a job now and can afford one, yet I havent bought one because ive realized that artist's can study art like how a scientist studies science, the methods of expression and envoking some kind of feeling or portrayal of anything is based around the self. Art is like taking random stuff and making something cool with it, (because it is) and an art tablet is just one of those things you can take, same with legos, or ms paint, if an art tablet helps one improve, then great! But all methods can be honed, and learned, like learning to use a spear though your specialty is the sword, anyways, awsome video, I loved everything you said and it made me remember lots, instant sub!

    i use an xp pen tablet!!
    its very nice, and overall amazing and i *think* that theyre pretty much professional grade/the same as an expensive one in terms of everything (i think?) (well atleast the basics) (have no experience using anything else) except for the colors
    the display on my computer screen is a different color from the tablet- the tablet appears more saturated and it really annoys me....
    anywho
    its really good, ive had mine for like 2-3 years and ive suggested it to others who enjoy it aswell!
    really well priced!!

    • @grob5119

  • @kickbeez642
    @kickbeez642 6 місяців тому

    tablets are super accessible now than when I first started looking at digital work. i used to draw traditional then scan and use my wacom bamboo tablet. Samsung has many budget tablets, and I'm sure apple has some previous gen tablets that can run procreate for a affordable price, but I don't know how many layers it would be able to handle (i've never used procreate honestly).
    Huion Kanvas was my first digital screen tablet for about 450 back in 2019. I can't remember the model name but it was my first true full entry into 100 percent digital drawings. It was very nice to use. I used it with CSP but I'm sure you can use it with more affordable software/free software like Paint Tool Sai.

    You bought your expensive display tablet to be a better artist. I bought my expensive display tablet to play DS games with a touchscreen. We are not the same.
    Jokes aside, I was scribbling on printer paper with dollar-store mechanical pencils before jumping right into the deep end with a display tablet, and WOW the possibilities have opened up. There really is no comparison. Now instead of scribbling in mechanical pencil grey, I scribble in mechanical pencil *blue*. Still trying to figure out how layers work so I can actually color my work. Fantastic video, subscribed, and you have opened my eyes to the possibilities of *layers*. I'll have to experiment some more.

    i still draw with my ipad, and i only got an ipad 2 years ago. i used my phone since 2017 to draw! i’m still a finger artist. i like what i have and i actually got a tablet in 2019 but preferred using an ipad! it’s all up to you, but you don’t need good equipment for good art. my ipad art is better than anything i’ve made on an actual drawing tablet.

  • @Bluephantasm-m2y

    My first drawing tablet was a cheap one meant for Osu it sucked and didn't have any pressure sensitivity. And bc u didn't know how to use software and the tablet was awful I was terrible at digital art. Years later I was able to get a laptop and bamboo wacom and it was honestly great!

    This is kinda unrelated to the video itself, but I love the fact that you used the 3DS menu app sounds. Like I recognise the camera app sound, and some others. I haven't seen anyone use those cool sound effects from the 3DS! It was quite nostalgic to hear them again, because the 3DS was my first game console.

  • @ashisharky
    @ashisharky 7 місяців тому

    While the tablet doesnt need to be fancy and expensive, i recommend that if youre super used to like traditional, i would AVOID using a screenless as the disconnect can be pretty difficult and (in my case) nearly impossible to get over.
    If you can afford it go for a screen tablet, otherwise just keep saving up. I never use my screenless huion anymore for drawing even though I dont have anything else for pc (i use a samsung tab s6 lite and krita as it works fine) just because that disconnect is impossible for me to get over due to being combination traditional and digital.

    Funny enough, I’ve never wanted a cintiq before lmao. I have the Huion HS64 and I hate it. That probably also has something to do with the fact that my computer is absolute dogshit and dies at random intervals lol. I actually wanted a samsung tablet since it’s multi purpose (internet, communication, school work, games, AND ART? Oh boy, sign me up!!) i have to save up for it though. Hopefully I’ll be able to buy it either right before or during college. (Also no, I didn’t miss the point of the video. I absolutely agree with everything said here! I just know that my devices not really working is actually limiting my creative abilities. Mainly because it ruins my motivation to draw)

    My only complaint is that it was supposedly compatible with my phone, but only ever worked once...
