Since the next semester of college at Sheridan is gonna be from home due to COVID and all that, I’ve had to get a Wacom One Creative Pen Display Tablet– y’know, the kind where you can draw right on the screen. My previous one couldn’t do that and it just wasn’t gonna cut it for what I’d need for the school year. Too primitive.
I was gonna have to get one of these in the future anyways, so why not sooner than later? Anyways, setting it up was a pain in the anus (turns out my laptop doesn’t have an HDMI port, so I had to order an adapter for that), but the little snot is up and running now! I did a quick-ish test drawing to figure it out:
Anyways, here are my initial thoughts: this thing is great! What a godsend. My one complaint is that the brush thickness tends to lean to the extremes– like, if I press lighter, the line barely registers. I think this is just something that I’ve gotta get used too, though; after a few weeks I’m sure I won’t even notice anymore. Maybe I just have to calibrate it?
