Wacom Bamboo Pen & Touch
Hey guys.
I'm back with another hardware question I've been pondering how to get the creative juices flowing. I really want to be able to make artwork, but having a tough time getting started.
So my question is, what do you guys use to create.. backgrounds, for example?
Also, would something like the following be useful?

Or would it be entirely unnecessary?
Any advice is appreciated, thanks in advance.

I suppose if you might appreciate the feel of a pen in your hand, as apposed to a mouse,
that would be the way to go...
That would be more of a personal preference, than a necessity, I think...
Having a set up like this would be pretty killer though...

If your honestly thinking of getting a tablet i would suggest you have a look at one like I purchased and these are not as hard on your wallet either like walcom
https://www.monoprice.com/products/su...08&cp_id=10841
The one I purchased was the 6814 model
But to be perfectly honest if I had it to do over I would have went with a smaller pad.
Don't know how to explain this but with the bigger tablets your hand has to travel farther when making an image than it would if the pad was smaller and you could accomplish the same thing by just flexing your fingers like you do when your writing.
Thankfully the pad I bought has a scalable active work area.
So in other words since I have my pads active work area scaled down to about 5 x 3.5 the cursor still moves the same on screen but now I don't have to move my entire arm to go from one side of the pad to the other.
I can accomplish the same action by just moving my hand and wrist a short distance and accomplish the same action.
Everyone is different but that what feel comfortable for me.
I will say this the pad I purchased is very well built and has a nice solid feel to it.
If you do decide to get one I would also consider while your ordering to check out their cable section and purchase a usb male to female ext. cable.
The one that comes on the pad is a bit short 3'ft.
I purchased a 15'ft ext for an extra 2 bucks from them it was well worth it.Please Post In English OnlyDon't forget to leave Comments and Rep to the artist if you like or use their artwork.
Thanks VC Staff

I own an low price Bamboo. It's a smaller pad and didn't come with much software (didn't need the software) but, I wish I had shelled out a few more dollars and got a larger pad. I enjoy using the Bamboo Pen and pad that I have because I can't draw with a mouse, still wish I had a bigger pad though.
