finally got a drawing tablet
2 months ago
but so far it hasn't been smooth sailing, I bought one in the hope of being able to draw my drawings and then transfer them directly to my computer to post on here, but the results have not been promising
for starters my drawing are turning up rougher and than how they would look on paper, unprecise, slightly off line, and not being able to draw as neat and straight on screen and as I do on paper
another problem is the touchscreen, even when I have finger sleeves on my image will enlarge unexpectedly and sometimes it will move around and I'm chasing it, and my previous line I draw will automatically undo itself because of the sensitive double finger tap undo function
I'm gonna try to make this work, but if I can't?, I'll just go back to old fashion pen and paper, perhaps next time I'll consider buying a scanner to scan my drawings and get them on the computer that way, perhaps should've consider buying that first instead, but like I said, I'm gonna try to make this work and if not?, I'll have another for it in photography.
if anyone out there has some advice or courses on how I can use my drawing tablet effectively and to draw better on it, I'm open to it

I also gotta ask if the tablet came with any offerings for tutorials.
Practice makes perfect. But also, I do have a friend that's been using a tablet for a while. ^!^
and yes sure I wouldn't mind hearing any advice he has for me if he does :3
Hehe! I'll ask! ^!^
"There's a lot of great art youtubers out there, recently I've been watching this guy https://www.youtube.com/@emiliodekureart "
"I'd also recommend they check out Etherington Brothers on twitter/x, they have a series of books with tutorial pages like this, and they post pages to twitter for free all the time. Really good for a bit of specific inspiration when it appears in your feed"
Hope that helps! ^!^
Don't worry about having off-lines. My strategy is that I like to make draft layers, put them in a folder, then use a brush that has a higher stabilizer value. Stabilizers add a little lag for your pen's movement versus the line, allowing it come out smoother
