Need to replace my dead drawing tablet!
8 years ago
Terrible news everyone! You may have heard from my other posts or media that my drawing tablet has stopped working. I had a faithful intuos4 that seemed to finally burn out. I am going to need a replacement. Art is how I make my living and the vast majority of my projects and commission work is entirely digital.
The lights will not even come on. I tried everything from unplugging it, switching ports, swapping cables, uninstalling/reinstalling drivers(multiple times), restarting services or turning my pc off and on all together. It's dead. It's just dead.
I am fortunate enough to have a wonderful friend who has loaned me his own drawing tablet so that I may work towards getting a replacement. It's an old model of cintiq, which lets me draw directly on a screen! Much more advanced than what I've been used to.
At minimum I'd like to get a wacom intuos-art medium. I cannot draw on a tiny tablet efficiently or I'd consider getting an intuos-draw. However, I am wanting to see if i may be able to push further for a higher quality tablet.
So for this month I've decided to offer sketch commissions openly instead of strictly in streams. These are flat colored chest-up busts. I can do pretty much anything from people, pets, monsters, and what have you.
These are $15 USD a piece.
There's no slot limit as I can finish numerous of these per day.

I am also open to half body(waist up) speedpaint commissions reserved outside of streams for just $45. These will have limited slots at each time as they take a few hours each.

I am also available for my standard commissions as well including illustrations and telegram stickers.
And if you would like to help but don't want to buy art, I have a tip jar below!

If you can't help financially, spreading the word and sharing would be appreciated too! Thank you so much!

GET A HUION 1060PLUS
Seriosuly, get it. Oh my god. It is such a good atablet, I used to have a Wacom Intuos Pro tablet for about 3ish years? This thing costed me $500 and it was supposed to last me 15 years but it broke down on me and died. I did a LOT of research, and I swear to god the new tablet I got now is EXACTLY like the Wacom Intuos Pro. I got it for $89 and this thing works beautifully. Here is a few works to show you that I've made from this tablet:

The pen may be a rechargable, but do not let that fool you. All you need to do is plug that baby into a computer, let it sit for an hour, and once it's done charging it will last you for 72 hours or more. Seriously, it is amazing. I LOVE this tablet. I got it off Amazon in like about a week? Heres a link:

I've been considering getting a screen-based tablet. I don't really care for touch-screen stuff (my hands would bump shit all the time when trying to draw), but I don't know if I'll dive that deep into investing in a new tablet or not.
But I know plenty of artists (including yourself!) that make wonderful work with intuos or track-pad based tablets too. So it's not a need, but a preference I guess. I really appreciate your input and feedback though. :3
