Drawing Tablet Buyer's Guide 2023

Are you looking for help to get into digital art? Are you confused for what models would you pick? Do you want success in your art career? Then this blog is for you. These are the buyer's guide for artists who wanted to take approach on digital art. As always, you don't need a latest and greatest tools just to make good art. Your handy mouse and a trusty old tablet can do fine art at the time. My Intuos 4 L still works today, even if it was released on 2009.

Here are the basic categories you'll fit into: Beginner, Intermediate and Professional.

Beginner - This is where you start making digital art for the first time.

Intermediate - These are experienced artists who are on mid-range level at a greater value.

Professional - These are same as intermediate but who are on to take approach an high-end level to mimic the meaning art.

There are three types of pen tablets for you to decide. These have pros and cons on these tablets.

Pen Tablet - A pen tablet doesn't require a screen and can benefit for a user experience such as good posture, portability and pricing, but this requires hand-eye coordination as this type of tablet has a steep learning curve and drawing on it feels unnatural to use.

Pen Display - A pen display is a monitor that can be drawn into. It is easier to learn how to use pen displays and can mimic a sketchbook you were drawing. However, there are issues such as bad posture, expensive pricing and limited portability. Sometimes, your hand gets in the way through pinpoint cursor while drawing.

Pen Computer - These are pen tablets that can be used by themselves and don't require a computer, it can be portable for travel use. However, they are very expensive, limited to none upgradability, difficult and costly repairs and have a short battery life. As such, I do not recommend getting these pen computers for these reasons above and instead look for other mobile tablet alternatives such as iPad Pro, Surface Pro 8 or Samsung Galaxy Tab.

Here are the list of drawing tablet recommendations based on three categories.

NOTE: Prices may vary due to sale discounts so I only put links to the official store from drawing tablet brands so I'm gonna keep the original price for future references. However, Amazon is safer for returns and good units and eBay is the way to go for second hand offers.

If you're an osu! player looking for a pen tablet, I'd suggest getting an Intuos Pen and Touch Small 2013 (PTH-480) on eBay. One by Wacom Small (CTL-472) has the same performance yet cheaper. The only good alternative that doesn't suck is Gaomon S620. I recommend getting OpenTabletDriver for that purpose.

If you want to invest digital art, I highly recommend getting a medium size tablet for larger hand gestures.

[kristinagehrmann]

Review: XP-PEN Deco L

As someone who prefers screenless "normal" pen tablets for ergonomical reasons, I'm happy to test this simple graphics tablet provided by XP-Pen.

Let's see how it compares to my old Wacom Intuos 4 M! That is my favorite tablet that I have been using for many years and which is the standard I compare all other tablets to.

The XP-PEN Deco L is small and light, but the active drawing area is very similar to a medium one from either Wacom or the XP-Pen Deco Pro line. So that is perfect! There's also a wireless Bluetooth model available but Bluetooth hasn't always worked well for me in the past, so I chose the cabled version.

It has some keys on the side but I've never really used those anyways (I prefer the keyboard, which is always right above the tablet) so I can't speak to their efficiency. But what I noticed is they have little nubs on them so you can differentiate them by touch alone, which is a nice detail!

The pen is relatively thin and light, a little more so than I'm used to, but that's not really an issue. It would probably be ideal for artists who can't easily hold heavier pens for long.

Importantly for me, it has those 2 keys/buttons on the side -- just like the Wacom pen -- that can be set individually. I use it for Alt (color picker in Photoshop) and right click. 

The installation was super quick and easy (I use Windows 10). Just plug the Deco L in your computer, download the latest driver from the website, install that, restart, and you're ready to draw!

Drawing, painting and sketching is fluid and easy enough in both Photoshop and Clip Studio Paint that I can work with this tablet professionally. The pressure sensitivity is very much like the one from the Wacom Intuos 4 that I'm used to. This is the most important aspect for me.

I also noticed that it works very well as an input device for the PC in general, even in the browser (which some tablets don't work perfectly with, especially when it comes to scrolling and copypasting). I still assume it may vary depending on your OS and browsers.

Who the XP-Pen Deco L is for:

- anyone who wants an affordable basic pen tablet that works perfectly

 - artists who need a mobile tablet that can easily be carried around to places.

 Hope you enjoyed this review!

However, limited access to full-featured desktop software; price are more expensive to most pen displays.

Brands of Drawing Tablets in Brief

There are many tablet brands. And picking the brand of the tablet is one of the most important decisions you will need to make.

Wacom make the highest quality and most reliable tablets. But also they are the most expensive.

As tablets get larger, most companies will sell key remotes, as is the case with the Cintiq 24 pro, where it is complementary. if the larger art monitors appeal to you, but the lack of keys is a turn off, try seeing if the company sells a key remote. In most cases if they do, they're under $70.

If you've read this far, I hope this helps!

📷💻 My Yearend Techs and Misc. Items - 2020 📱🎮

Well, 2020 is about to end; so we’re not gonna dive in some bad moments and current plague that we all know, okay? 😉

Anyways I made a new summary for review techs and misc. items, but mostly techs stuff. 🙂 And this will be replaced for my “yearend artworks”. So, where’s your summary for artworks 2020 you asked? Well I decided to post my summary art to my 2nd tumblr account, so I won’t give you details because of… “Secrecy”.🤫

Nonetheless, here are my techs and items that I’ve done this year 2020. Some of which are my completed topic review, while others are continuing my topic(s) and some are my moments usage.

So without further ado, let’s get started:

JAN - My Cord Protector for my Remax 610D (Completed): My Remax 610D earphones are my best budget earphones I’ve ever used, so I need to install a wire protection back then. But it’s too bad that the left earbud worn out on Mar 16, 2020.

FEB - My Nyko Type Pad for PS4 (Ongoing): Last recorded on Mar 3, 2020, hopefully I will make my final remark someday. As for the main item itself, it’s still functional on my DualShock 4 V2 Controller.

MAR - My USB Hub 3.0 Mini Portable (Completed): It worked very well a months ago, until I accidentally broke and become useless. Which I’ll get to that later.

APR - My XP-Pen Deco 01 V2  (Ongoing): It’s my first budget medium sized drawing/graphics tablet, and I’m still using and enjoying it ever since. Although, there are so much things that I want to talk about. Only time will tell If I keep this going until the end.

MAY - My Silvertec Wireless Keyboard & Mouse Combo [SCKM-E111] (Completed): My mom purchased this awesome budget wireless keyboard and mouse combo for my birthday. And I’m still using it today.

JUN - My rear camera replacement for my Galaxy S4 [GT-I9505] (Completed): To this day I still missed my old Galaxy S4 so much, and this right here is one of my example moments. Replacing the old Galaxy S4 camera to a new one. Hopefully I will earn a new LED touch screen someday.

JUL - My Strontium Nitro A1 Micro SDXC Card 64GB (Completed): So far it functions really well through my Honor 8C. Hopefully I will get the larger 256GB on my future wish list. And yes, this is good budget micro SD card, for those who struggle to earn a expensive brand Micro SD Card.

AUG - Alternative internet access for limited (Aug 4, 2020): Last August of this year, we’re suffered a lost internet connection from our PLDT Home Fibr modem for the 2nd time. So we’ve provide some backup; only with a fraction of small cost.

SEPT - My TP-Link Archer T2U Nano AC600 USB Wifi Dongle (Completed) and My 8bitdo USB Wireless Adapter ‘PS Classic Edition’ (Completed): It’s a tough choice between my TP-Link Archer T2U Nano and my 8bitdo USB Wireless Adapter / Retro Receiver. There could be only one, but I ended up in a half photos, because they’re usable for me; one is connecting the internet with either 2.4G or 5G wifi hotspot(s), while the other is pairing with any wireless controller(s) per each retro receiver that avail and suitable their gaming taste. BTW: The original post for my 8bitdo USB wireless adapter retro receiver was on last August 28, 2020 on my secrecy blog, before I decided to post three parts on September.

OCT - Fixing ‘My USB Hub 3.0 Mini Portable’ using my soldering tools (Oct 24, 2020): Now here’s my post we’re I tried to fix my My USB Hub 3.0 Mini Portable. By applying soldering lead too much, it did not work very well; leaving my mini USB hub completely useless. Uh well, now I’m gonna find a better one.

NOV - My 8bitdo SN30 Pro+ Gamepad (Ongoing): So far, this is the most worthy 3rd party controller I’ve ever used than my previous 3rd party controllers; and it’s equally better to my DualShock 4 V2 Controller, due to symmetrical gamepad layout . There’s more topic about my 8bitdo gamepad came from, coming 2021.

FAQ

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1.0 TOOLS

.01 What materials/programmes do you use?

iPad Pro 2020, 12.9” with Apple Pencil Gen 2

iOS Procreate (drawing process)

Photoshop 2022 (post-edit process) + XP-pen Deco 01 (v2) tablet

.02 What brushes are you using?

I use a combination of brushes released by Lotusbubble, JingSketch, Jeremy Fenske, and Devin Elle Kurtz.

.04 Where would you suggest I learn about…

anatomy: Morpho Anatomy books, life drawing classes, pinterest, theposearchives (dA) colour theory: Marc Brunet’s tutorials, Colour.adobe resources character design: Marc Brunet’s tutorials

.06 Art book recommendations?

Here’s a list of my favourite books:

Creating a Champion (The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild) The Art of Raya and the Last Dragon The Art of Encanto Tokyo Storefronts by Mateusz Urbanowicz The Art of Heikala by Heikala The Art of Kiki’s Delivery Service

.07 Do you do tutorials?

Not at the moment. But in the future I would like to do tutorials on my Patreon page.

2.0 Art and Bee

.00 Who are you even?

I am a very short girl, who enjoys drawing fandoms such as Harry Potter and The Legend of Zelda. As of now, I am 26 years old, and I work as a freelance artist and ESL teacher. I LOVE peach tea.

.01 Did you go to art school?

No. I am self-taught. I actually have masters in chemistry. I dropped out of my Chemistry PhD in my first year because I realised that science is not something I want to pursue in my life. I do not regret studying chemistry though - it was a very interesting and valuable experience. Would I have the chance to choose now though, I’d go study degree in Illustration.

.02 Who are your favourite artists?

Here are some that I often turn to for inspiration:

Mimimaru, Heikala, Mateusz Urbanowicz, Ladowska, Mehkuni, Devin Elle Kurtz, Marc Brunet and many others.

.03 How do you motivate yourself to draw every day?

I really make sure I draw what I enjoy. There are days I wake up and I do not feel like picking up my pen. When this happens, it is about time to turn back to studying. I go to my Morpho books, youtube tutorials and my favourite artists and I dedicate the day to anatomy studies, colour theory etc. That way I do feel accomplished although no illustration is done in the process.

.04 How to get out of art block?

Take a break. No seriously. If art frustrates you, it is time to put it down and take-a-well-deserved-break. I hit the wall 2-3 a year and usually, it comes after a big project or when I refuse to pace myself.

This relates to the previous questions, but when a time like this hits, I often restrict myself to no art for up to 3-5 days. Instead, I go back to passive studying - watching tutorials, watching an animated film, reading some books, playing video games for inspiration.

Sometimes it also helps to switch a medium. So for example I go from digital to traditional.

.05 What is you digital art process like?

I start with light gesture drawings followed by detailed soft lineart. Then I shade in black and white. When this is done, I turn the black and white sketch to red (using curves) and with multiply layers, I block in the basic colours. Then I create a normal layers and I begin to paint in all other details. I often finish the background first before I move on to the characters.

.06 Why don’t you do traditional anymore?

In 2020 I had to move to my parent’s house for 4 months while I was recovering from an illness. I had to leave all my traditional media in my flat in a completely different country. I only had my old iPad with me, which was the only way I could do art. I have been drawing digitally on my iPad since.

Once in a while, I still use the good old pencil and paper, but I found that digital painting gives me great creative freedom and helps me to visualise my light-up fantasy brain cells. hahaha

In general - I just enjoy digital painting more at the moment.

I still do oil painting once in a while tho!

3.0 USE OF MY ART

.01 Can I use your art for my pfp?

Yes, BUT! Please do message me for permission and make sure you credit the art appropriately.

.02 Can I use your art for bookbinding fanfictions?

Now - please read this carefully.

I ONLY allow use of my art in fanfiction bookbinding if it’s a NON-PROFIT bind (ie only cost of materials is paid for). Please DO message me in dms (ig, twitter, tumblr) if you want to use my art in your binds. The chances are most likely I will say yes and be very excited to see the outcome!!!

4.0 COMMISSIONS

.01 Are you available for commissions?

Yes! You can find the link to all the details here.

.02 Why are your commissions so expensive?

I only charge for labour and the time spent on the commission. For a full-illustrated type of commission, I can spend up to 30 hours working on it, hence the high price.

.03 How long will your commission take?

I ask for my customers to count with 2-4 weeks from the date the payment is received. This is because often I have a couple of projects before I commence on your commission. I also count in any unexpected events such as an illness, my teaching job hurdles, art block, and inspiration dips.

.04 What you will/will not draw for me?

Will do: humans (fanart, OCs, irl), pfp’s, larger illustrations, and character designs

Will NOT do: nsfw, fetishes, gore, mecha, furry, animals/pets, hateful art, ships I am not comfy with
