Stop killing my dream!

I know it's pretty expensive for what it is, but that doesn't make it any less nice to look at!

The only problem I have with my tablet now ( aside from it being small ) is that I haven't gotten used to drawing in one place, and looking in another with any sort of accuracy or precision.

Also, that Graphire pen is a pain in the a**. Well, more like a pain in the finger if you hold it for more than an hour.

Thats why that Cintiq appealed to me, looking and drawing in the same place seemed like a nice change of pace, plus, the pen looked cushier.

If you really like a tutorial, I would recommmend that you copy/paste that stuff onto a word doc,'cause you never know when the site hosting it will go down...*has happened to me, and it had SEVERAL good tutorials, too...* ._.

No argument there... does change the way you work.

FWIW - the intous pens are the same as the cintiq ones... (and they are cushier than the graphire pens).

Not significantly cheaper than the graphire series... fewer levels of pressure sensitivity, and you have to find AAAA batteries for the pen - I'll pass. But good to know there are options out there.

Yeah, I probably should have read into that a little more befoe I posted it here.

I saw the price though, and thats about 20 bucks less than the graphire of the same size if you buy from most major retailers.
