How well do superDisplay and Astropad work at making a portable tablet into a desktop tablet? How much delay is there? Is Astropad worth the annual fee?

>>6856984
I don't know about AstroPad but superdisplay works pretty well on Android. Heavily outdated though (no updates since 2020)

Do you guys use your shortcut buttons often?

Are screenless tablets suitable for animation?

Hi, so I dug out my old bamboo spark I used a fair bit during college/doodling. The spark pen itself still works, and the remaining refills I have still work, but whats online is well..like 4-5 dollars a refill so pricey in the long term. I was wondering if people know what tech specs i should be looking for, if there are any alternative tips out there for the bamboo Spark ?

Websites say the Spark's panel is Wacom's EMR , and the tips have some copper coating , so I wondered if there are tips somewhere out there which people have tried and worked on this legacy device.

I believe the refill size is a D1

Thanks for any info..

>>6857053
Refill?

So I hate the very clicky feeling of the pen and really wish we had solid ones like the apple pen. I'm wondering if some are less clicky than others or if there's some special nib that can help with that? using a cintiq companion hybrid soon upgrading to 22HD DTK-2200 so Im guessing im limited to the 2k pens

>>6857059
i find the grip pen to be slightly more "solid", although the nib has a little give as well. but at least the buttons are silent and dont have this flimsy plastic frame around them! i use my grip pen with the rubber nib so drawing feels rather soft and not clicky at all

Reminder to never buy a Wacom Studio.

Where can I buy the Airbrush pen in the USA?

I have a PTH-660 (Intuos Pro Medium), and i'd like to get the airbrush pen (KP-400E-01), as I think the extra control options would really help me with photo editing. I can't find this for sale anywhere in the US. Google says it's out of stock everywhere. I tried ordering through Wacom in Europe, they have it in stock, but no option to mail to the US. Has anyone seen it for sale, new, from a US company?

I'm hunting ebay for it, but the only ones i've found is from Germany or Italy. Found it on a suspicious site, but the pricing was extremely low, so I think its a scam site. Has it been completely removed from the US market for some reason? Thanks for any info!

hello guys i have huion 1080 new werks fine i wanted to ask if tablets in general accept any pen or i need to buy huion especially ?

>>6857196
You have gimped yourself badly.

why ? it werks fine i'm just asking if it will accept other pens, and can you interchange them in general

>>6857049
My intuos 3 died a few years ago but it was way better than the xp pen I got..
I also got a 22hd cintiq but one of the touch strips right in the middle of the screen died and I cant find any way to get it repaired online

>>6857011
On cintiq I always use the shirtcut buttons because it feels natural to grip it, but for screenless the keyboard is better

He bumps the thread to bring up the post count and feel more popular, like people will be impressed that his general is getting attention because he's such a good OP. genuinely the most pathetic person you'll ever see.
This shit would get like 7 replies before just falling off naturally because no one cares about the topic. Tablet purchases are basically a one and done thing, at least for several years, and /ic/ doesn't get much new traffic daily.

pyw nigger

I have a simple question about these drawing tablets. The question is would I be able to utilize one of these tablets for drafting/3d CAD, in say free CAD software? l'm looking to use one if these tablets for 3d modeling and drafting some projects for my 3d printer and pocket cnc machine. Would one of these tablets even be a viable solution for my application? Thank you in advance for your guidance.

>>6857300
I think the answer is yes and maybe this video by wacom will help: https://youtu.be/IGpl3dpuwoA

Screenless or screen?

>>6858134
you don't draw.

>>6856969
I know the Wacom Intuos Pro tears through nibs, but should I just get Wacom Intuos 6.0" x 3.7" Graphic Tablet with Stylus (CTL4100)?
It is only $50CAD and the next size up is like $200. A bit concerned about the drawing size though. Also people said the Pro pen is more comfortable...

>>6858166
nothing but the biggest most expensive wacom tablets are worth using.
unless it's a 20 year old intuos 3. then it will literally draw for you. those are your options. do not buy other brands that aren't wacom. don't even look into them or consider them at all.

>>6858176
screen or screenless Wacom then?

>>6858178

Chang does that when it seems like someone wants to get something other than a Huion. Tells them that only the most expensive one will be ok

>>6858267
retard

>>6856969
Intuos 3 has a 4:3 working area, how does this work well with today's 16:9 or 16:10 screen sizes? Doesn't this skew the way you have to draw?

Oh fuck my ipad pro 2017 developed colored pixels on one side of the screen. Might as well use a paperlike so I don't get annoyed with it

>>6858347
No. Just adjust the surface area in the driver settings.

>>6856969
For doing exclusively 2D, people say that screens are better than screenless drawing tablets. Would you agree? I'd rather avoid buying a screenless drawing tablet if I need to teach myself new muscle coordination and if I'd eventually go to a screen afterwards anyways.

>>6858626
No screenless is better for back posture and being able to see where you're drawing without your pen being in the way.

In trad you can use overhand grip, drumstick grip etc to actually see as you're sketching. This luxury does not exist on display tablets where you're forced to use tripod.

>>6858641
>Wacom intuos 3,4,5 are all 20 years old and hard to find pens for
>wacom intuos 2018 model is cheap but too small, has some nib wear issues
>Wacom intuos pro medium has the worst nib wear out of any tablet, and you'd be taping plastic to your new unit to avoid this which is unacceptable
>also the lack of any display means your life work using paper is worthless muscle memory and you'll be undoing a lot more compared to display tablets
>Wacom cintiq breaks the bank and is bad for posture

>>6858725
if only there were another option other than wacom

>>6858641
different grips are entirely possible with any tablet with tilt. stop posting.

>>6858785
I know that many tattoo artists use Sensi-Wrap (self adhesive bandage) wrapped around their pen/stylus to simulate a thicker grip like a tattoo machine. It is also much better posture-wise to draw from the shoulder, as opposed to "scratching" with the wrist, it's a common excercise as well to wrap a ruler around forearm and prevent wrist from bending. Drawing without the wrist, and using a very thick grip will help you not only to practice consistent straight lines pushing or pulling, but will prevent carpal tunnel. I've seen people even do a very thick sensi-wrap grip on their apple pencils. Like picrel but maybe twice as thick.

>>6858908
how the fuck are you going to charge your apple pencil with that on it?

>>6858912
You could slide it off easily and slide it back in (probably?) but most people probably don't care because its like 9$ for 24 rolls

>>6856975
>>6856976
Why do you keep using the old ass tech? You scared little shill?
>>6857036
Sameshit

What should I get for a screenless tablet? I tried a huion with a screen before but I really don't like doing things that way. I much prefer looking at my monitor.

is the Cintiq 16 a good buy whenever the sales holidays roll around? I currently have an Intuos Pro Medium and while I do like it, I think I'd like having a screen even more

>>6858725
>>6858778
desperate shill moron

>>6858785
>different grips are entirely possible with any tablet with tilt
No they aren't you stupid idiot. You always reach a point where the plastic rim elevates the nib into the air. You absolutely cannot use overhand grip or any grip where a digital pen is arched horizontally.

>>6859465
You don't even draw, why are you responding to me?

>>6859462
Answer the question above you, shitter

>>6856969
Woah okay I thought everything but iPad was a meme, but now I read that S pen is better than apple pencil. Should I get a tab S8 ultra or s9 ultra? Also do you recommend a paper-like screen protector (might ruin image quality) or smooth screen protector? I am considering this tablet because I can also use it as a laptop substitute since I don't actually own a laptop. I guess I should probably wait for Black Friday sales though.

>>6859616
wacom mobile studio pro or 2nd gen ipad pro 12.9.

Well frens, I got an apple pencil from a local milf. Now what do? How into?

>>6859616
You should get whatever is cheap on craigslist or whatever and wait until the new ipad pro drops next year, then buy either the current Pro or last years when the prices drop with the newest model

>>6859643
5got pic. It's an old ipad so I may sell both and get a diff tablet at some point

>>6859620
Wacom mobile studio pro is like 1k more than what I'm looking at
>>6859646
I am not in the apple ecosystem and I read the iPad glass is too slippery for drawing anyways. Might as well get a Samsung tablet I can use for both note taking and drawing... just looking at the spec comparison on gsmarena, I can see that the Samsung is great with water resistance, SD card slot. I don't need the super speedy M2 processor unless I can run 70b llama

>>6859658
pretty much anything made out of glass is going to feel like glass

>>6859661
Unless it's etched like tablets actually designed for drawing.

>>6859661
but people say you can use any EMR drawing stylus with the Samsung, such as a Wacom One pen with felt nibs which gives a little friction on the glass screen protector.

>>6859669
The Samsung S-Pen also has a flayed nib that isn't slippery, but it still doesn't feel like a natural drawing experience. Also I think it wears out and you cannot replace the nibs.

Haven't tried third party pens yet.

I have a wacom one CTL-472, I bought it recently and it just feels really fucking weird. The pad is small (I am poor), the pen feels weird, I cannot draw from left to right to save my life.
I can ink and trace relatively okay (I just started learning both in paper and digital in August).
What can I do to suck less? Make it feel less weird?

>>6859681
Screenless tablets are always gonna take some getting used to.
At the same time, the tablet might be mapping the entire drawing area to your monitor(s). If it was anything like my Intuos S, by default it mapped the entire drawing tablet surface to both my monitors. The driver software let me map the surface to only one monitor, and also constrain the drawing area so that the active area was the same aspect ratio as my monitor, meaning moving up and down would move the cursor the same length as moving left and right.

>>6859905
Why buy a screenless in the first place?

>>6860207
Cheap, lack of knowledge.
I still use mine on occasion to scribble out doodles. It's less cumbersome than my 22 inch screened. And even with a tiny screenless you can still do decent work with it, just not as quickly or accurately compared to a larger tablet.

>>6859681
Sell it and get a huion with a bigger screen. The difference between pens is negligible compared to more room to draw.

>>6860929
oh no
oh no no no no
oh no oh no oh no

>>6861209
He's a chinese shill, he's trying to steer you towards Huion rubbish.

The S6 Lite is still a good tablet. Best value for a portable display, and it can be used as a desktop tablet with superDisplay, which is much more affordable than AstroPad on the iPad.

>>6861209

Do any of you guys sit your tablet on a wooden drawing board? Does it sit in place well?

Bought a wacom one tablet on a whim. Hope it doesn't fucking suck.

>>6861362
it will.

>>6861175
Wait for discounts.

Ignore Chang. He's trying to convince you to buy a larger tablet so he can sell some shit quality Huion.
Some people really like drawing on small tablets. Large size only really yields benefits at 22"+ where shoulder drawing can be utilized.

Cool thing about Samsung tablets is that they come with the pen (unlike iPad) and they are Wacom EMR pens.

>>6861366
you don't fucking draw.

>>6861175
As usual, continue ignoring chingching: >>6861369

He says this to everyone. Even if you post work, he just belittles and insults like the sad little Chinese idiot he is.

>>6861373
you won't post your work and never have because you don't draw. Prove me wrong and I'll come fly to London to suck your cock.

I bought the s9 ultra. Looking for felt nibs now. Do you guys have a link for felt nibs which fit the Wacom One pen? Maybe on AliExpress?

>>6861362
Cuck

>>6856969
I still have that exact tablet

>>6858725
>Wacom intuos 3,4,5 are all 20 years old and hard to find pens for
You can buy whole intuos 3 with all spare nibs from some retard who never used it, cheaper than pack of nibs to new Wacom tablet. I'm not joking now.

>>6861920

Anyone tried XP pen 16 2nd gen? In my country it's still unavailable until 15th next month, but I saw reviews like 2 weeks ago, so I don't know if Youtubers got it early or I live in extreme shit hole.
Anyway I'm interested because it's 16:10 aspect ratio. All monitors I own are that ratio an i find working on them much easier than 16:9
There is etched glass, and 2.5k resolution. Sounds and looks really good. The one and only thing I'm worried was little bit of wobble in those yt reviews. But all of those yt people said it's not really bad.
And now I'm lost again. Was already decided on 16 inch huion, but this 16:10 XP pen looks much better. I never owned screen tablet. This is going to my my first, should I be worried about this wobble or its one of the things you forget it exist after getting used to it?

>>6862075
It's trash.

>>6862081
>number of posters hasn't gone up in like 30 posts
guzzler, are you asking questions for yourself to answer again?

>>6862085
I asked this question. Week ago when I was asking about huion tablet in other thread you responded immediately with same shit as now. This is pretty weird, it's literary second question i posted in a week and immediately you appeared.

>>6862075
When I shopped around Huion's pens had better accuracy than XP, XP offers more for screen options and stands it goes with for comfort. You can work around stand options buying your own, but you can't upgrade XP's accuracy.

>>6862157
Well that sucks, the 16:10 screen really got me hooked.

>what's the point of this exactly?
Using the whole arm, the movement coming from the shoulder rather than "chicken-scratching" and drawing from the wrist. Practicing & being able to draw consistent lines pushing/pulling in diff directions. Not getting carpal tunnel (!!!) It's really for practicing tattooing, designing stencils, tattoo artists make their living via the permanence of their drawings, and henceforth their reputation as an artist, every piece is extremely important, make-or-break. They do a lot of drawing, obviously. It takes some getting used to, but it's pretty comfy desu. You obviously can make the grip as thin or as wide as you want.

>>6862585

I still kinda want it. I fell for the marketing and I want the highest end s9 ultra because there's up to 36 months financing plan for it...
But you're right, I do not need it and it's hella expensive.

>>6864382
A Galaxy Tab can be worth the investment just for the portability alone. Can even double as a smartphone to replace whatever you're using.

>>6864382
I just bought the Samsung tab s9 ultra. The 512GB version was on sale for the same price as the 256GB on Samsung Canada. Then there was a coupon code you can enter during checkout. Final price was like $1250CAD before tax. Plus i will get two Samsung E-vouchers worth $100 each soon which I will use to purchase a OEM case and maybe earbuds... I am happy with the price.

>>6864370
Not gonna lie, I like my Cintiq 22. But I did plenty of good work with my small screenless tablet, though a larger one would probably be better. You just have to know that screened and screenless are two slightly different beasts that need different mindsets to take advantage of fully.

How do you think people managed before screenless tablets? Renaissance painters had their hand blocking their path as well, anon.

Ordered a Galaxy S6 but the default pen that will come with it looks like ass, BROAD tip that doesn't look right for drawing.

That's just a side profile of the tablet itself.
The actual pen looks a bit weird but the nib itself is your standard tapered nib. Unless this is what you were talking about in the first place.

>>6865357
KEK, I'm so retarded...
I've never touched a tablet other than my 15yo Wacom, nor do I have a smartphone, so I have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to new tech.

Good to know it comes with an okay pen, I was looking into buying one separately and it's pretty expensive.

Relieved to find I only have to shell a few extra bucks for the keyboard thing, now.
That button seems like something that would get in the way of customizing it's girth with tape in case it's too thin/lightweight, but oh well. Never used the buttons on my Wacom anyway.

>>6865374
Depending on your program of choice you can customize or disable the button's function. At least, that's what I can do with my S6 Lite and its pen.

Does the eraser for the Staedtler Noris Jumbo actually work on Android Tablets like the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra?

>>6865374
the pen itself is more like a pencil in width and feel, but because of that the button is hard to press for me. I set it to be the eyedropper but honestly I don't really press it

Should I get a Xencelabs M or an Intuos Pro M? I heard the Intuos is eating up nibs like super fast.

I'm using a 2021 Huion Kamvas 16 and i'm having a serious issue where releasing the pressure after drawing a stroke creates these thin lines that shoot off to the left side of the screen
Any ideas as to what's happening and how to address it?

I know the answer and fix, it's very easy.
no I'm not telling you.

Anyone here use an Apple (TM) Apple (TM) Pencil (TM)? The OE nib feels a too slippery against the glass of the iPad (TM) screen. I'm considering trying some of the 2B, HB, or pen tip, or 4B-2B black silicon pen tip nibs. Like 10-15 on amazon, but can get for like 1$ on aliexpress, just need to wait a long time for delivery. Wondering if any anons have used some of these nibs, and which ones are good? I was gonna get a protector but it seems like the better option is just a softer nib.

hey guys for any one the tablet owners here, has the Android environment actually caught up to iPadOS or are we still limited to 1+ app per niche still?
i know that CSP is fully supported, then Infinite Painter and others for Procreate alternatives, etc but there's no Adobe (albeit limited, but i've used it and it gets you out of an emergency) suite apps or newer stuff coming out like Procreate Dreams
is committing to a Tab+ or Ultra really a good idea if you need an all-in-one device or are iPad Pros just better overall, im interested in the redesigns expected early 2024

why are there 2 of these generals up?

when you draw a line, are you supposed to have an idea how hard you are going to press? its completely random for me

Inherited an Intuos 5, medium size.
What portion of the screen do you (personally) select for your tablet? Do you only have it capture part of the screen or do you just make your canvas the entire monitor?

Right now I have it to use the entire monitor with only a portion being the canvas but its been a janky piece of shit and worse than drawing with my mouse.

2 years to be exact. Had my pen display from XP-pen arrive 2 years ago and the shill said "I fucked up hard."

It's still working perfectly. Case in point, always do the exact opposite of what the wacom-guy says.

yes anon there is only 1 person that doesn't like you and wants to troll your epic thread.
they are awake 24/7 and live only to prevent people from buying wacom products.

>>6858166
I have a CTH-470, while it still does work, I have gripes that since CTL-x90 they removed the eraser end of the pen.
Considering that your entry choices are $50 vs $200, I would get the $50 tablet. If it was a smaller price gap then I would have gotten the larger tablet. You also want to consider your monitor size, if you're drawing from laptop (and not using a second monitor) then the CTL-4x would work fine, I would be hesitant on using it with a ≥ 22" monitor.

You can probably avoid the tablet surface issue in >>6857049 by getting a surface cover or having paper between your nib and tablet.

If you are looking for used iPads, you probably would find it cheapest if a school is clearing out old equipment.

>>6875327
>comments off
yeah ok.

>Do not read anything into pressure levels. 1024 is more than enough.
This reads like
>the human eye cannot see more than 23 fps

>>6879874
Do you think you can accurately vary the pressure in your fingers by thousandths? Max pressure on most screens is like 100g, so that's 0.1g variation. You'd be extremely good if you could consistently get within a few grams.

>>6879874
This just tells me you're a complete moron.

>>6879899
the point of having more pressure levels isn't so you can accurately get exactly pressure level # 4728. It's so your strokes are smoother.
also I like that this thread didn't get a post that should have bumped the thread in almost 24 hours but it was still bumped like 6 times lmfao

>>6879929
and he still didn't got the hammer

>>6879929
>It's so your strokes are smoother.
Pressure levels don't dictate how smooth a line is you idiot. There is zero perceptible difference. 20 year old Wacoms have better pressure response and consistency than your 8192 garbage Huions, which still can't register quick hatching strokes properly.

Anyone here who disassembled their Intuos 3 stylus? Mine decided to die after 12 years of usage. Here are it's symptoms and what I did:

>the pen is rattling on the inside indicating something is loose
>pointer tip becomes wobbly and clicks on it's own from time to time even tho I'm not pushing the tip on the tablet.
>have everything disabled even the side switches, scroll strip, stylus side buttons etc.
>unplug and replugged the cable
>updated the drivers to the most current one available
>repeatedly remove and insert the nibs
>used it on another computer

It's still the same, any advices on how to fix it are much appreciated.

Based retard here, it has arrived. I'd PYW my work but I don't know how to take a screenshot yet.

What FREE software should I use for drawing?
I'm going to try installing drawpile, but there isn't much about it online so it might not really work.

Otherwise I might try Medibang, someone told me Artflow is free but has in-app purchases, I don't know what pigsty phoneposters are used to live in, but that sounds like a big scam. If I ever spend any money, it will be in a one-time, unlimited license.

>>6881178
Infinite Painter
Krita
Medibang
Ibis Painter
Sketchbook
ClipStudio

Also get them all off Mobilism so you unlock all the premium features.
Remember to also install F-Droid and TrackerControl so you can easily block apps from connecting to the internet.

>>6881191
Are you telling me to pirate these?
I have no idea how, as I've used Windows my whole life, but I'll give a look into all of these, thank you very much.

I am ideologically against selling things that can be duplicated for no cost (software) AND I can't be assed having a credit card and whatever monthly/yearly bullshit comes with it.

I'm already making a huge compromise by even using this toddler-focused technology, as it's extremely unoptimized and programmed to limit your capabilities at every corner. A DRM machine you have to pay for that will stop working as soon as my Pajeet overlords decide a Genderneutral Astronaut With Cowboy Hat :skintone_5: emoji update isn't compatible with my old hardware anymore.

Meanwhile my Bamboo from 2010 is still working perfectly because I bought it before Wacom became yet another Chink fleecing company for the phoneposting retards who will eat garbage and ask for more. AND shame those who don't waste even more money on it.

Sorry, I'm not gonna buy it... UGHH... I know, I know...

>>6882923
That's just the wear and tear of the Intuos 3 overlay, loads of people complained about it on conceptart.org and CGTalk back in the day. People also used to tape printer paper because they found the surface too slick, which is Wacom changed the overlays to what we have today.

>>6882855
>this is the exact wear
Playing devil's advocate, he's claiming the wear happens faster, not that it doesn't happen at all.

>>6882947
>not that it doesn't happen at all.
wacumguzzler is claiming Soejima has used the same intuos 3 for many hours every day for 15 years (we went back to 2021 btw), and it's still pristine. So yes, he's claiming it doesn't wear at all. Even being conservative and saying "many hours" = 3, that's still over 10,000 hours of use.

1) Soejima only does initial character design, most of the art you see in game isn't his.
2) A majority of his drawing is done with pen and paper, he only does digital for the final design.
3) There's no reason to believe that it's the same intuos 3 from when he first got it.

Do you have by any chance a link to a video tutorial or step by step guide on how to open a Intuos 3 stylus/grip pen? I tried searching online but to no avail. I only saw a Intuos 4 disassembly tutorial and nothing else follows. Thanks for the advice anon I appreciate it.

>>6883662
You remove the button and the rubber grip then twist and pull and hope the plastics come out easy, if it's not opening easy then it's never gonna work out, I ended up making a small cut with a scalpel to ease up the pressure on the Intuos 1 pen so that it popped, the pressure on the plastics is really strong and it's almost impossible to open, on some cases, others the pens open easy. I think I ended up removing the eraser nib and soldering on the tip but both the eraser and the tip work, it was still the same design, only the PCB was different.

>>6881071
you only need one because it's indestructible

>>6883893
are you sure

I'm conflicted on whether to buy the 3 set of preowned Wacom Intuos 2 tablets (seller says it only have 2 pens and 1 mouse), which looks a bit worned down and recently cleaned or buy a brand new Huion or other chink brand drawing tablet. Both of which are 40 to 50 bucks in total plus shipping. I can't clearly decide anons, which do you think is the better deal of the two?

>>6884138
more tablets is obviously better, you can draw faster if you have 3 intuos 2s than if you only have 1 huion.

>>6884138
I would not buy anything older than Intuos 4 and even that is case by case, the overlays can't be replaced as they don't sell them anymore, you'll be drawing on scratches and pits in the case of the Intuos 2 which uses the old slick overlay that Intuos 3 also has.

>>6884167
I see so the surface of the Intuos 2 is vastly different. My intuos 3 died yesterday, so I'm searching on for a new tablet I can use for my freelance work. In my case here in SE Asia, the Intuos 3 tablets are really rare and ridiculouly pricey even preowned it's still the same price as buying a new one. Oddly enough it's easier to buy the overlays compared to the tablet itself.

Honestly I prefer Wacoms products over other brands since I've been using them for years. But lately their products are getting pricey here each month due to inflation. A small entry Wacom tablet here (like the Bamboo etc.) costs almost 60 to 100 dollars brand new, compared to the chink branded ones. It's hard to find a reasonable bargain here. Also, thanks for the insight about the Intuos 2 I appreciate that.

>>6884157
I see, I understand your point in any case the other one dies or gets broken I can still use the other one and troubleshoot them easily since they're the same model. Thanks for the insight anon I appreciate that.

>>6884138
obviously buy 2 Wacoms, then you can dual wield and draw twice as fast

>>6884192
yeah no problem brother
>>6884202
understands as well.

I'd actually opt for 5 wacoms if possible, one for each hand, one for each foot, and one for your mouth.
Optionally, depending on how good you are at moving your ass, you could get another one for you rectum, as well as one for your urethra, for the ability to draw 7 drawings at a time, or one drawing 7 times as fast.

>>6884190
If you like the Intuos 3 then the Intuos 2 is almost the same, obvious option if there aren't many options.

>>6884283
the intuos 1 is very good as well, in fact, the older the better they don't make them like they used to
