  • decent graphic-tablet (recommendation+advice)

    i really need to get my hands a graphic tablet. i don’t have a job and I’m a student so i don’t want to spend too much but I’m aware good G.tabs aren’t cheep.

    reason/ use: ‘precision’ drawing for hobby and possibly serious projects.

    more importantly i loved drawing as a kid and i still do but i rarely manage to draw these days. i think working with digital mediums is a great way forward in my situation.

    specification:
    -size A4
    -balance between coast and quality
    -price: basically don’t want to spend more than £100 maybe slightly more, around £60-£80 if possible.

    i’ve seen the waccoms but they’re close to 200. i think the genius is quite good but is it.

    WHAAAAAAAAAT. i’ll have to win money or tablet in comps, or raise the money or eat into my grant O.o what a predicament.

    yeah i know that wacom’s are the best more or so and probably leading in g.tab technology

    A6 £190
    A5 £340
    A4 £400

    A6= good for hobby but is this too small and restrictive of work pace for projects, i mean it’s small)

    i agree with seeing it as an investment but at the same time i might never use it professionally, so
    do u know any ‘good’ low end tabs or know someone who might? i can at least get used using a tablet before i can afford and jump onto a wacom.
