[@DanielAngArt]

**UPDATE** The giveaway has now been finalised - congratulations to HeavenSSnuggs for winning! And thank you all for your comments, it's been awesome reading about your goals and art ideas!

My art goal is to finish my art and be decently happy with it

[@ukiitukii7425]

There is no end, it's a never ending path

[@scarvello]

As an artist your eyes and your hand level are constantly adjusting. Some of the greatest artists can do an iconic piece and come back a year later of progression and see mistakes that they would’ve changed. It just all depends but I hope you continue your journey because I’ve been stagnant for many years drawing since I was 5 and now 34 years old. Biggest thing is don’t listen to any negativity from anyone telling you that you can’t do something.

[@tomgarden]

That will come :) you will be happy with it more and more often.

[@lin3378]

[@gozzyboy1989]

My goal is to apreciate my art work more and not be so harsh on my self, and experiment with different styles and experiment with different software. Keep up the good work dude.

[@RaeLowery]

I missed the giveaway! It’s September. I want to get back to work period. Had a rough year last year, health wise.

I wannabe a mangaka it's my dream from when i was 15 i have been practicing my art for 1 and half years now this year i have been giving my all to my art and story and i really want a graphic tablet its like a need now but it's not available in local store of my area and it cost too expensive here. well, if I really won it I will show it first to my mom and i will draw whole night thats for fix i really want the winner to be me but who ever win it Cong you are lucky. ahh , congratulations brother for 10k sub really wish for you to reach 100k in upcomming months

[@natashaglogy]

Congrats on 10k!! And thanks so much for reviewing Kambas 13! It has been on my wishlist for awhile hopefully I can het my hands on them in the future ^^ Would love to keep growing, I'm very confident with my drawing but I learned at this point that there are always things to know from different artists and different perspective..and it affects the way I think when I draw~

[@roccoklair]

Hats off to your Drawing bro, product is great, the way you are elaborating and making it easier to learn about the product is great as well. Keep up the good work and congratulations for 10k+ subs.

[@DanielAngArt]

Thank you very much!

[@dohantonie9354]

It looks so pretty!! For the rest of this year, I'm just trying to develop my experimental illustrative style further while intergrating typography fully.

[@ahhmonocle]

My art goal this year would be to start animating digitally on top of my analog sketches for clients. To mix more the different techniques! And to make the most of that beautiful tablet that I just purchased thanks to your review. Thank you for the video!

[@lifteddavid1132]

Definitely one of the best art KZbin channels. For goals, I'd like to be able to speed up my process mainly by simplifying the way I take on a painting. Congrats on 10k👏👏👏

[@rheannemarietorralba8969]

Congratulations on reaching 10k subs! My art goal is to finally get started on the art portfolio that I've been putting on hold for the past couple of months because of school. I also want to create meaningful works that reflect my inner thoughts that I could share to the world.

[@zelotzecho13]

Congrats on the 10k subs!!!!...my personal art goal is to improve concept art drawings as well as learning more on anatomy and animation

[@HypnoSpec]

Congratulations on 10K!! That’s very well deserved. I’d say that my personal art goals are to learn to animate and get a better grip on anatomy. And also finally start making KZbin videos.

[@DanielAngArt]

Thanks Robo! What kinds of KZbin videos would you make?

[@HypnoSpec]

@@DanielAngArt I’d wanna make art videos like speedpaints and tutorials, animations in 2D, 3D, stop-motion and all kinds of other styles. Make games and game devlogs, make music and all kinds of other stuff. I’d be very inconsistent, but I’d want every video to be high effort.

[@DanielAngArt]

@@HypnoSpec Awesome to hear that! I'm quite inconsistent with my upload schedule too 😆but I think as long as you keep trying things out, that's what matters!

[@HypnoSpec]

@@DanielAngArt Yeah, I’ve got a lot of big ideas for the videos I wanna start making in the future, and I also wanna maybe try voice acting and lots of other stuff too. I’ll see where it goes, thanks for your videos, they’ve been a good source of inspiration too!

Integrating textures to make my background art less flat, adding more depth in my paintings for the same reason as before and improving my line quality. I want to be able to look at my old art and make changes that allow it to be better overall. Congrats on the 10k btw, I'm really inspired by your art

[@StevosAlmighty]

Hurray for the 10k! Always loved your content, your video quality is always a mix of ASMR, great observations, and a treasure trove of art info! My goal for the year: Improve digital digital environment paintings and tackle a big city sunset roof scene. In the meantime, slowly filling up my sketch book with plein-air sketches.

[@DanielAngArt]

Thank you Stevos! A big city sunset sounds awesome - lots of details there and a great place for some storytelling too.

[@KillerTacos54]

Congrats on 10K subs!! Well deserved! In terms of my art goals, I would absolutely love to improve my knowledge and confidence when it comes to anatomy, and applying that to my illustrations. Not only that but I'd ideally like to improve drawing from various angles, and especially when it comes to foreshortening

[@daneeanthonijsz]

Congrats with ur 10K! 🎉 My goal for the year is focussing on environmental paintings and creating a zine from those.

[@zarts01]

thats a great achievement congratulations my art goal this year is to improve more on my art skills and gain more experience and also want to bring more of my imaginations to reality 😌

[@sani337]

Congrats on your channel growth ! My art goal this year is to try and tell more of a story with my art, whether that’s by evoking more emotion or incorporating other traditional story telling elements, I want to make more art that connects with people :)

Hi man, my art goals this year is to understand the direction where my style is going and doing crazy things with perspective and color theory, you have and amazing understanding of others people art and yourself, even tho you have hundreds of views and little comments or likes you put an outstanding amount of effort in your videos and art, have an amazing day and feel proud of what you've accomplished as a person and an artist.

[@DanielAngArt]

I really appreciate you saying that, thank you!

[@mysticalmaze.6619]

Congratulations on 10k 🎉 it's amazing to see art channels grow, gives me so much motivation❤ my goal for the year is to try out 3d art software more, I'm quite interested in learning that.

[@DanielAngArt]

Thank you! I sometimes use Blender for my illustrations - couldn't recommend it enough.

[@mysticalmaze.6619]

Great video :) In terms of art goals, I want to be able to draw a larger range of quality art work, I feel limited in what I can achieve up to this point.

[@ACupOfJoe.]

My art goal is to continue to improve my sketching skills and start to incorporate loose sketches into a digital illustration. I really like this stylized analog/digital combination I have seen others doing! Thanks for the great videos!

[@davidbacera3849]

Hi! I'm planning on purchasing one of these as my first Display Tablet. I've been using an XP Pen star 03 since 2017 and have been wanting an upgrade in the last 3 years or so due to driver issues on newer PCs. However, I reviewed the specs and the workspace height is only about 165.24mm which is only a few millimeters taller than my old one, but is significantly longer at about 293.76mm compared to 255mm. Do these specs actually reflect the actual product? I think the insignificant increase in height is going to be a factor for me. I need the tablet to be taller and not longer, but I need your opinion. Thanks!

[@DanielAngArt]

Hi David, thanks for watching! I measured mine with a ruler and the workspace does indeed reflect 165.24mm x 293.76mm respectively (though about 216mm x 365mm for the actual physical product). It depends on your own preferences, if you'd like something a bit bigger I'd recommend looking into the Kamvas 16. Should be the same specs but just bigger than the 13. Hope this helps!

[@davidbacera3849]

Hi again! Thanks for the reply! I'm terrible at judging sizes (especially on video), so thanks for confirming the actual workspace size. It looks bigger on video than in real life. I guess it really won't matter much considering I also used a galaxy tab (much smaller than this) to draw before and never had issues with the smaller working area. The zoom function does exist for a reason, after all. And thanks for the recommendation. I might think about this longer when payday comes.

[@annemarmion9621]

My art goal is to improve my skills in color and value composition and also find back that genuine pleasure to draw without pressure of the result, without the expectation to make something "good for others". My goal is to reconnect really with my capacities to create unique stuffs with pleasure! And so find more work that match more with me. Currently i have a xp pen that is terrible to work on, a new one would help so so much so i try my chance ! Congratulations for the 10k !!! Your videos help me a lot

[@Qiwi_crown]

Congratulations! You deserve it. My art goal is trying to get better at coloring. It has been pretty simple but I want to play with the highlight, neon, shiny, ect.

also have the gt221 (pro with upgrade for tilt and 2nd gen pen) and the kamvas 13 using the big one at my desk.... and using kamvas on the go with my phone connected powered by a batterypack. loved your video btw

[@DanielAngArt]

Thanks for watching! What do you think about the difference between the GT221 and the Kamvas 13?

[@sadev101]

@@DanielAngArt personally when at home i prefer the big screen. just more easy to draw on. and its running photoshop... the smaller screen of course can also be hooked up to laptop to get same photoshop experience. but i bought it to be able to hook up to my phone and run infinite painter or krita on it (i made a case that i can magnetically hook phone onto.) so serious photo editing is done on big gt2211. and sketching i do mostly on kamvas 13. main reason is i can run on a battery pack for 2.5 hours on the small one + phone. i do have to say the pen of the kamvas is phenomenal imho. but if you do many hours detailed work sitting on desk i do prefer a big screen. (but love the portebility of the kamvas)

[@paulocezarxavier8552]

I have a problem, I use a PC and a monitor, or I choose to connect the HDMI from the monitor or the table.. how do I use both at the same time if my computer only has one HDMI input?

[@DanielAngArt]

You can get around this by using a DVI or VGA adapter for your monitor, and the HDMI for the tablet. It makes it a bit trickier for us PC users since I think these tablets are primarily designed for laptops. Hope this helps!

[@paulocezarxavier8552]

Do you think it's more interesting to leave the HDMI for the graphics tablet and the VGA for the monitor?

[@DanielAngArt]

@@paulocezarxavier8552 Yes, that's what I'd recommend!

I want to be a mangaka but i don't have money to buy a drawing tablet well i don't even have a bank account and drawing tablets are not available in local stores of my area Well, even tho i am not gonna get this and i really want it you can give me any cheap pen table all i want is to draw my manga Well don't even know that it would work on my 4gb ram pc or not Anyways byy i felt a little better after sharing all my pains❤ good luck who ever wins it you are lucky

[@lenalittle1243]

What kind of software are you using

[@DanielAngArt]

Just Photoshop! Sometimes Blender for 3D things too

[@TRISKELKION]

I've been wondering if I should buy this tablet and this majorly helped! One thing is that I'll definitely need the stand but I haven't been able to find one anywhere. Does anyone have any links?

[@APRICEPRODUCTION]

Really annoyed! Just bought mine yesterday only to find that it's incompatible with an iMac unless you purchase a USB-c to USB-c cable which I've found out you have to be careful of. Because of the recesses on the tablet, you have to make sure you have the thin cover USB-c to USB-c cover ends. Otherwise it won't fit inside the tablet. They provide a cable but it's like 28 bucks, I think the only way around it is using a HDMI adapter to USB-c, however the makers didn't really cover iMac users in this release.

[@DanielAngArt]

That's a shame! I've noticed the deeper recesses on the tablet too, which makes it harder to use other USB-C-C cables that aren't Huion specific. Were you able to get it working?

[@anand_pg]

Thanks for sharing this great review, Daniel! Does anyone know if Huion has the "click and tap" option as well as "hover-click" in its settings, like wacom has?

Hey ! Please does it needs to be pluged into a power supply or only to your computer ?

[@DanielAngArt]

It just needs to be plugged in to your computer/laptop!

[@Stealth_Hunting]

Question.. does this tablet comes with its own software or is this basically a screen that lets you use a pen to draw and you still need to buy a siftware?

[@DanielAngArt]

This just duplicates your own desktop so it needs to be plugged in to use applications 😊

[@PHX-576]

Does it have to be always plugged? Or can you use it by itself? Are there any tablets that can function by themselves?

[@DanielAngArt]

This tablet does need to be plugged as it's just a display monitor that will allow you to draw on it 😊 There are tablets that function by themselves and have their own operating systems like Huion's Kamvas Slate 10 or the Kamvas Studio 24 etc. 🙌
