Wacom Cintiq 16...it's alright
6 days ago
Felt like rambling about my experience with this drawing tablet since I've had it for a while and edited a few pics with it. I don't have any experience with other tablets so my comments are coming from using a touchscreen laptop with a touch pen that has pressure sensitivity.
Screen size is fine (16 ish inch diagonal) and it's big enough to see what I'm doing but small enough to actually sit on my cramped freemium desk designed when physical printing was the norm and multi screen setups were space-age nerd shit.
Colors are a notably faded compared to the laptop it's plugged into. But I follow the same editing formula for a while so this is only problematic near the final stretch of editing. I tried goofing around with the settings but I can't get it 1:1 in terms of color saturation. I already found the cope by switching my image to the laptop screen for evaluation so it's no big deal.
Touch pen? Literal garbage. Tip fell off but I glued it back on and it's been working fine so far. Buttons stick too proud of the pen body and they get accidentally pressed too often. Rubber grip is stretched out for some reason. My old laptop's pen with flush buttons was way nicer by a country mile.
Only responding to inputs from the pen is nice. On the old art laptop I had a lot of ghost touching and I could not rest my hand on the screen which was not comfortable.
Cable hell for...reasons. It requires plugging in an Eldritch horror to function, kinda annoying but the cords are long enough for me to move the tablet around.
Overall: harder better faster stronger. Finding a used one is probably better...as long as dumb ass UPS doesn't yeet it into the shipping abyss.
Back to dinotastic art and prepping for my next trip woo.
