raising funds for tablet [mission accomplished]
6 years ago
*just bit of an announcement*
in the name of "raising funds for tablet" i plan to make few consecutive commissions. when there will be no more interest in commissions or i'll reach money "goal" - i'll go back to doing at least one free raffle between commissions.
[XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX]XXXXXXXXXX]XXXXXXXXXXX] | 265/265 usd
whose commissions will foot the bill for new tablet:
the reason is: i'd like to try to buy new tablet my current one - wacom bamboo M (CTH-670) is kinda old and it works well enough but i have some issues with drivers on Windows (it's legacy product so Wacom doesn't update it anymore).
and i'd need*430pln / 700pln / 1000pln for new one:
Wacom Intuos Pen S (bluetooth) / Wacom Intuos Pro S / Wacom Intuos Pro 2 S
(more or less: 115/185/265usd respectively)
*(well - i don't "need to" - i'd "like to" - and i could pay it myself, it's not that big of an deal - but i'd like to try, make this hobby at least balance with zero income, instead spending money on it, if i can)
last "goal" of 265 usd is a bit of a stretch - i don't expect to keep this thing up for so long (265usd/30usd ~= 9 weeks - with commission/week - i work slow - what can i do?) nor big enough interest in my commissions to do so, but 1st one is achievable , and 2nd is not out of the questions either, tho in that case (2nd) i'd probably just fill missing cash myself to pay for most expensive option - it's not like "pro" equipment will make you better - it's just nice to have something fancy for a change.
also if you are shopping for tablet:
my suggestion would be:
go for Wacom - i had XP-Pen - hardware was good but software was so problematic i went back to using my previous - wacom-one, sadly there is a reason why Japanese at Wacom have near monopoly on graphic tablets (these are just mine experiences - but they're enough to cool my enthusiasm for "top 5 Wacom alternatives")
about size - i have medium one - i borrowed "Intuos Pro 5 L" (by old bamboo/intuos nomenclature) for a while from friend and i actually didn't like it - it was too big - i like to work on 50x70cm paper (20x27inch or so) but in digital drawing small tablets are fine for me, so it's matter of preference (just: bigger isn't always better - not for all at least)
update no.1:
yay i managed to get 1st goal - and 2nd is seems to be basically assured with current queue.
update no.2:
well at the moment, it seems i not only managed to reach 2nd goal but i'll reach 3rd one...
update no.3:
damn - mission accomplished - after failed attempt at bidding for "customer return" on allegro.pl ("Polish ebay") - i made backorder on amazon.de - it should be shipping out on 27 of September - when it will arrive i'll post some image or whatever
