Tablets - Posted By tricky.cb (crazyblue) on 17th Jan 08 at 2:32am
A tablet is a device that lets you use a pen to draw with a pen right on it and it will appear on the screen. They come in handy a lot with designing and people are quite amazing with them.

How many of you have them?

I'm getting one tomorrow and I can't wait. I'm getting a Wacom Bamboo which is one of the cheapest I've ever seen. I can't wait to get it and test it out {Grin} I'll post something more about it tomorrow when I have it and test it out.

I've been messing with it all night and I just did my first piece too and I think its great for a first. I traced a picture of Bioshock to the best of my ability, anyways here it is.

I only think I screwed up on the drill and maybe the other hand {Grin}

Thats impressive dude.

I would love to see you go for a digital painting of it now {Cheesy}

Re: Tablets - Posted By tricky.cb (crazyblue) on 24th Jan 08 at 2:35am
I've done a few digital paintings of random things. Still trying to get the hang of real people. I've painted the sky, and the ocean during a rough storm and both turned out pretty well.

I'll eventually jump at it but for now going to stick with simpler things.

I have one but don't use it {Sad} I think the main reason is because i chewed the top of the pen off and the batteries keep on falling out {Sad}

I've used a Waccom before in school. Smiley'd it when I was in my stage of Digi-Painting.
