Intuos 5! :D
13 years ago
So this fancy-pants new Intuos 5 (medium, touch) I ordered arrived this week! :D
It's all fancy and new compared to my old Graphire 3, so I've been fumbling my way though attempting to re-learn to draw with it. It's different! For instance, the default "grip pen" is shaped a lot different to the old one (which they remade into a separate "classic pen"). I can't tell if I'm just a luddite stuck in my classic-pen ways, or I just need to get used to a new pen. Has anyone else tried the difference between a grip pen and the "classic" style? And of course the 2048 levels of pressure (compared to the Graphire 3's 1024) on the pressure threw me for a bit, before I recalibrated my brushes. I had no idea how much I'd "grown into" that old tablet o' mine!
Also, after the unhappy cable-shenanigans I had with my first tablet, I ordered the Wireless Kit along with it, only to discover that it comes with a removable cable that's pretty long anyway... so.. yeeaaaahh. I guess it'll be great for when I take it other places, but I also discovered it's slightly too large to shove into my compact Incase backpack ( also I'm paranoid about breaking my expensive new toy :V )

Congrats on getting it finally :3
