Heya peeps.

I'm in the market for getting a new Pen Tablet, and i'm wondering which model to get.

Keep in mind that I have a very limited budget (no more than R450, incl shipping).

I won't be doing much, other than drawing in Flash, and drawing webcomics (colouring them, too).

So far I have these as my prime choices:

http://www.jump.co.za/product/genius-g- ... 513303.htm

Any help?
Thanks.

Come on guys, any help at all please?

Man, are you sure you like the pen thing? I bought one, I draw ALOT, but to draw on something and watch what you're doing somewhere else is a skill...

If you're looking for a cheapie as not to waste cash. I found this: http://www.sybaritic.co.za/store/produc ... s_id=10184

Looks decent enough for R250. or at least worth checking out.

I've been looking for tablet as while for a while so I may just take the plunge. I mean R250, why not?

i was wondering now seeing that i saw this thread, do you get a graphics tablet that is a touch screen lcd? so you can draw on the table while looking down and seeing what your doing?

if not maybe Dae you can do a mod like this?

Ok, even though you're hogging someone elses's thread
Yes you do: I would've mentioned it but they tend to be a tad pricey -----> http://www.wacom.com/cintiq/ you do get cheaper makes and versions but this is the idea.

They go for R15k+

Ignore Synthesis. He has sand in his lady wrinkle.

i trust wacom...
I've got a bamboo a6, you get the pen, touch and multitouch versions.
the bamboo works brilliantly, pressure sensitve, very accurate. you can't go wrong.
they go for about 900, so it may be out of your budget, but nothings impossible.

a word to the reyals... 2008 wants its thread back

a word to rustypup: tell 2008 it's mine now, he can create a new one

Dude, I already bought a graphics tablet. Like, two years ago.

Thread locked.

(How do you lock your own threads again? )
