I got mine today, I've had screenless tablets before this, damn I've been waiting all of my life for a affordable screen Graphics Tablet, for the longest Wacoms ridiculously expensive price has kept me away. But boy if you are a descent artist, this tablet will feel completely nature as if you're drawing on paper and does not have the massive learning curve like the screenless Graphic tablets.

[@ArtsyTwilette]

I agree. I am in LOOOVE with this tablet. The only thing I feel it needs is a paper like texture which I'm planning to get from a screen protector. Also I vastly prefer drawing in it over my Intous. I've seen the Intous described as paper like and oddly enough feel like the Intous is more like a plastic marble than paper in terms of texture??? Sure that can be mediated by placing paper on it apparently, but I still hated how the Intous and the pen felt and was mixed about it's use. I don't think that is because the tablet is bad, more because it's dated technology. I've been making art work like crazy and the quality is on par with my paper art which is crazy since my digital art was usually 5x worse. It also no longer takes me 8 hours to make a drawing.

[@itzmumu485]

Love how she came out!!!! I only have an ipad pro and have never used a tablet so it was really awesome seeing your review and input as well knowing that you used an ipad for your art before.

This is really great but with any piece of tech its VITALLY important to give a good overview of exactly what cables are included incase people need to supply their own adapters etc as I have had to because it's not mac compatible. I LOVE your fairy, she is amazing x

[@mjpete27]

It would be nice to know how this tablet does over the long run, maybe you can do an update video that you can link to this one and say3 to 6 months and let us know how it is holding up. One of the cons for these cheaper tablets are they simply do not last! Can you let us know how this works for you please? Very good review and I hope it continues to work well. Have a great day

Hey! I love this video as well as your how to color your sketch video. Could you possibly make a video on how to color your sketch in procreate? Some of the functions (such as inverting the sketch to get just the lines) are not available in procreate :)) thanks so much!!!

[@thememes3502]

Hey nice drawing what app do you use

[@Sammy_47]

I have an XP tablet as well; I have the screenless Deco 01, but I'm going back and forth on whether to invest in a display tablet. Everytime I think about it, I feel guilty 😁; I like the Deco, but since I'm used to drawing from pen to paper, using a display would be quicker for me. I have an iPad and I work fast on that. I was thinking about the 15.6 Pro and/or Innovator, but still have questions especially about whether I need to adjust the colors; you mentioned you had to do something so the colors look the same on your computer. Did you have to adjust it on the tablet? Thanks 😊

[@SatansKidney]

Thank you so much! I really love the way it looks! Is it suitable for putting the stand on your bed? I don't really have my own desk.

[@kiyokosnotebook8652]

Pretty sure it is! If u want it to be more stable maybe add a folded blanket under the stand :)

I want to switch from a Wacom Intuos to this screen tablet, but I've already bought packs of the pen nibs and I'm already comfortable with the Intuos.

How is this tablet in the long run? I don't like having my parents rebuy tablets for me for my drawings so I want to know if this will hold up for a good 1-2 years or even more?

Does it work with Windows 10 version 2004?

[@l1quidbeatz46]

Do you know of any good tutorials that teach how to use this. I bought one for my son last month and it's not being used because we can't find the right tutorial to help him get going.

[@stelliumdesign]

When it comes to the red dial, is there an option of switching between brush size, zooming in/out, and/or rotating the canvas; or are you only able to set the dial for one of those options? That's something I don't see talked about when I see other artists review these lines of tablets. I'm thinking about switching from a Wacom Intuos Pro to a 15.6 Pro, so I want to know if that's possible. Thank you!

[@erikathegoober]

sapphitrasphire I checked and it’s not limited to those three options. It looks like you can program it to pretty much whatever. For me, it feels the most natural to use it for brush size because I’m constantly changing it when I paint.

[@stelliumdesign]

@@erikathegoober Okay. I know you can program it to literally whatever, because it acts as another "express key" but does it work similarly like the Intuos Pro where you can click the button in the middle (if the tablet has one) and you can switch between different functions - such as canvas rotation, zooming, brush size, pan/scroll, etc - or is it set up for one function only?

[@erikathegoober]

sapphitrasphire I believe you can only do one unfortunately. It doesn’t have a button in the middle. I ended up setting a couple other keys to zoom in/out and it works just fine doing it that way. I have an intuos pro as well and that was a pretty handy feature!

[@stelliumdesign]

@@erikathegoober Yeah, that feature is what is making me stay a little bit longer with the intuos pro before I switch, but at the same time, I believe it might be time for an upgrade. Thank you so much for checking into it.

[@happyhere2561]

Do you need 3 USB's on your laptop/PC to work the 12 pro?

[@ArtisanAsteroid]

I think they have an adapter thingy for people who don’t have 3.

[@ibukimioda1899]

Does it come with drawing app or do you have to download/buy one yourself?

[@alexmakesart7566]

I'm probably a bit late, but you have to download/buy one yourself. These are nothing but monitors you draw on and do not come with any programs

[@demonmace9766]

9:03 that hand?

[@junxrare]

Is it good for newbie? I want to buy it for my daughter

[@erikathegoober]

Malfurion Stormrage yes, good for artists of all levels! The tricky part is the software. I’m not sure which one she would use. Photoshop can be a little tricky for beginners because there’s a ton of features and it’s not made solely for drawing. But there are a lot of other options like clip studio paint, paint tool sai, etc!

[@junxrare]

@@erikathegoober thank you very much for detail 💖

[@annabellaapean]

@@junxrare download Medibang paint for free on her computer or laptop. It's 100% safe and easy to use :D

Yes. It's a monitor, so anything you install on you computer will show on the tablet. (However games like cs won't work haha)

Nope. You can use other programs like Krita, Clip Studio Paint, Coral Painter, etc. 😊

Can I draw with it if I haven't a PC?

You need a PC to actually use a drawing tablet but if you don't want to use it you can buy one that doesn't need it or just use a iPad and get pro create its cheaper but pro create is like 10 dollars

It's really different to have a tablet with a display than not having one. Glad I ordered mine yesterday. I have to beg my mom to let me borrow some money haha so I have a debt to pay. But it's really worth it cuz I'm going to start my commissions this june 20th.. I have some problems with my non display tablet cuz it made me draw slowly..like what you said how it's hard to put in detailing. So I'm really happy and it would really help to finish my drawings within a day or just hours❤️❤️. Also, your artworks are so pretty😍💕
