Not bad, I wouldn't worry too much about going into color just yet though if you just got the tablet. I'd do a bunch of scribbles and really let your wrist and hand fall in love with it. :)

its funny becuase i can use color my traditional means. Least when i use prismas. For some reasion i cant seem to grasp it with digital. Also lol i made a slime... http://kimatteiru.deviantart.com/ar.....slime-96357315

lol, it's cute. :)
and whoa! the tablet you got is a cintiq!? O.O
I want one of those soooo bad! It must be nice

i know right. its pretty sweet no doubt. There are some odd issues like depending on the tilt theres a slight offset between the pen nib and the cursor on the screen. But some of the other issues i heard about like the pen getting glitchy at screen edges hasnt seemed to bothered me yet. The one thing is Due to the screens finish it dosnt diffuse glare well..but if you have it close to you like you would normally hold a tablet its no problem. Also oc wont work if you lave a dual monitor set up. best to disable the second screen when your about to do oc. any time else having both open is no issue. The tablet knows when to stop the cursor on the main screen.
