Yeah I started with 6inch no-display, my hand hurted a lot and struggled drawing and ctrl+z was my best friend. Then after making good bucks from that small tablet I invested in 13inch cintiq. My hands were blessed. My friendship with ctrl+z starting to loose. My hands were happy. But I don't know why I was not enjoying drawing in 13inch display. Maybe the area is limiting to my big arcing hands. So I did some research and bought 24inch huion pro. And the color and the big biggy area expanded my creativity and all my limitation of limited canvas goes away. Now I love drawing in tablets as I use to love to on paper and pen with a big area to draw. The good thing about big area for drawing is you can use your whole arm muscle to draw arc and thus circles and arcs are smooth and requires less trials. And thats the story of me breaking my friendship with ctrl-z. PS. Ctrl-z is still my friend but not the best. We encounter ourselves once in a while now.

You can make good art with super cheap tools, but more expensive tools help your workflow immensely. It's like having a slow and cheap car to go to work, you can get there with a 1980s lada, but your experience going to work with a modern car, with air conditioning and all, will still make your life easier. So the thing is yes, you can 100% start cheap although with time and expertise you'll naturally end up getting stuff that will help your workflow

Huion knows their market when they make a cheap tablet not for drawing, but for playing the osu rhythm game. The size might be small but that's actually something of an advantage in osu, if two prompts are on opposite edges of the screen you're going to physically move the cursor there faster than if the tablet were bigger. The fact that it doubles as a decent drawing tablet is just aces. As a tech enthusiast, any piece of hardware that solves a bunch of problems very well is impressive engineering feat.

This reminds me of a video I saw on youtube about how a creative shouldn't let tools be the barrier of wanting to create. In many cases, saying I'll draw/film/animate once I've got that ipad/camera/fancy computer is something you tell yourself as a form of procrastination and *a fear of failure*. If you want to draw, sketch stuff in a notebook. If you want to do filmmaking, use your smartphone camera. And if you want to digital art, don't wait for a fancy iPad Pro, and get started on whatever tablet you can get your hands on. Having a tablet doesn't make you an artist, using it to make the stuff you want makes you an artist. EDIT: I remember the name now! It was "The Toolbox Fallacy".

Definitely the size is something to take into account. I can relate with the hand cramps, they come in quick.

I moved to a Galaxy tab s6 lite and although arguably it is the same size, the screen is a huge plus.

I love the concept and the conclusion, but I feel the need to point out that the limitations here seem more the result of the size of the tablet (regardless of brand, cost, quality) than due to the cost/make of the tablet. A better experiment would be to go for the cheapest make of a graphics tablet of a specified size that you're usually comfortable with/recommend, and then you could really prove your point.

That Huion OSU tablet is made specifically to play OSU, a rhythm game where you tap circles and drag across lines to the beat of the song. (If you've ever played Elite Beat Agents, it's the exact same thing) The small size is an advantage as you have to be able to move fast to keep up with the harder songs. The active area on that thing is smaller than that old CyberTablet I had where the active area was the size of a 3x5 index card. Which was my first ever drawing tablet, actually.

After trying no-display tablets as well as display tablets over the years, I find I actually prefer no-display tablets because I'm not bending over them all the time, and because I don't feel that little gap between the pen and the screen, and because my hand doesn't get in the way. As for bending the tablet and stuff, most programs nowadays allow you to quickly rotate the canvas as you need. My current tablet is a tiny one like this one, and I do miss larger tablets, but I don't miss screen tablets.

Having the best tool for a job might not be absolutely essential, but doing the best work you can in a reasonable time frame at any given skill level requires you to have a fairly decent set of tools. I have a cheap wacom that I bought 10 years ago which does the job in a pinch, but I have noticed that even on the s-pen and a fairly old samsung note 8, the results are comparable if not better and takes considerably less time.

Practice is exactly right! My first tablet was a wacom intuos tab that was about $35 at the time and I had the worst time trying to get used to looking at a screen while drawing on the desk. Now, I've gone through about 3 different generations of intuos tabs in the last few years now because they're about all I can afford and my art still gets better every day. I don't make money off of my art and I do it solely as a hobby and to draw caricatures of my friends but I have a folder of all of my art from the past few years and looking at my older stuff is proof that you can adapt and improve given practice. Now, though, I'm hesitant to buy a screen tab because I cant stand the delays. But maybe that's something I could adapt to as well.

Well, as long as there is basic feature like pressure sensitivity and acceptable line quality, pro level drawing is always possible. But tool still matters. A bigger surface area or a better pen will give you more efficient workflow, less redo and so on. At the end of the day, I think if you are going to take art seriously, going with a bit more expensive and larger option is better. You don't need to chase for the best, but your hand and wrist will be in a better shape, a few years later.

I bought this tablet a bit more than a year ago because I needed something portable in moments where I could not bring a larger tablet. I was even able to put some Velcro to stick it to the right side of my laptop touchpad and worked perfectly fine. The only downside is that I started to develop pain in my wrist over time, but that's just me, I'm a tall person/big hands, so the tablet is a bit too small for my preference if I'm going to be working for prolonged hours, but for quick stuff and portability, it has nothing to envy from other tablets. Pen pressure works perfectly fine, and it uses the same Huion driver interface options than the rest. I've not being able to figure out how to make the tablet retain the orientation every time I turn on the computer, since I have to rotate it 180 degrees, so the cable doesn't overlap the touchpad. I think it has to do something with administrator permissions on Windows OS, since that's another thing I have to turn on every time I'm going to use the computer. Great video by the way :)

The good things about it are it comes with the pen (obviously), a micro usb cable and some extra pen tips. Here in the UK it's going for £36 currently, and I believe that's really great value for money for what it does, plus the drivers just work great.

In the game osu! you need to use the pen in a tiny area of the tablet. This allows you to reach every corner of the screen without moving your wrist. It's very likely that the small size of this tablet was considered specifically for this reason.

I started in the 90s with a tiny Wacom tablet because I had developed horrible tendinitis in my thumbs from drawing with a mouse. I never graduated to anything larger than 6x8 because that's just how I learned to draw digitally. I didn't learn natural media and using my whole arm to draw until this past year when I started watercolor. I still miss my undo button, but switching back to my small graphics tablet isn't a problem.

Everyone has the impression that you need the best display tablet or the best software or the most expensive software/graphics tablet you can start off with the cheapest one on huion that I have starting now but also you need to also think about your hand sizes and your experience with digital art remover your still a beginner and it’s all gonna feel weird at first but it’s gonna take time to get used to then if you feel like you should upgrade then you can

My first tablet was a huion HD420, the one with the 3 express keys. Cost me about $15 (australian) to get but it gave me my first taste of drawing, the drawings were very bad coz i only really just started drawing. Then the next year I got my intuos small in pistachio green for my birthday and it was a lot less strain on my hand. I have since upgraded to a huion kamvas pro 12 and a Huion HS611 because they're overall just more comfortable to use due to their form factors. Will still go back to my Wacom but the HD420 is personally too small for me. Great to get if you want to dabble and try digital art out, but long term, your wrist will be thankful for something a little bigger.

I started with the Huion 420; I *loved* that thing. It was so much better than drawing with my stupid laptops mousepad thing (is that what it’s called?). I just got my first pen display, and I just want people to know,, the 420 is ENTIRELY possible to start with . I see a lot of people saying it “discourages” from drawing, but it made my life so much easier. It’s great for kids who might not have a lot of money to buy a 400 dollar tablet. Wouldn’t recommend using it for at MOST more than a year, bc it can create wrist problems, but it’s an a-okay starting point.

I also have a 9.7" ipad which is good but doesn't have the power for multilayered high res work.

I think this is where clip studio would be beneficial over photoshop as it has excellent vector layers which don't need accuracy, you draw the lines in and then adjust to fit. I feel this little tablet would pair well with that program where the limited tablet surface wouldn't be much of a hindrance. I recall what a pain my little Wacom intuos was over 20 years ago with its small surface area.

The tablet was actually shorter than my phone! Then I managed to upgrade to a gaomon s620 and then a xp pen deco L the convenience of size, pen pressure and tilt is amazing, but for the most part you are the main factor, get something your budget allows and you are comfortable with!

That's a common problem. I had the same issue when I learned to touch type. I couldn't even see the keys that my fingers were on, but I wanted to look down badly. Ultimately, I don't think there's a way around it other than powering through it or switching to a tablet with a screen. I'm thinking that keeping the tablet where I can't see it and drawing simple figures for short bursts would probably do it. So would using it instead of a mouse.

I'm a little bit late for this video, but I'm here to point out that I've done decent art (and I've seen people make masterpieces) in a 3DS, which I believe has an even smaller screen. Granted, it has a _screen,_ so that makes things noticeably easier, but still, the size is really only a problem if you're not experienced. There's a cheap program called "Colors" for the 3DS that's designed for drawing. It's a little bit on the limited side (only a few layers available, no pressure control and it doesn't even have a "fill" tool) but it does the job. There's a new version coming up for the Nintendo Switch, and surely that one will have some new features. Hell, I've seen people do amazing works of art without this software, so I'd say with practice the size will stop being an issue.
