_Vortus_ Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Curious what any Artists out there use, be it professionally or simply to pass the time. I just enjoy doing it to pass the time. But I am having some issues. Kinda funny, but I have problems using a mouse for art or 3d work. Funny in that eye/hand coordination is part of gaming. But for some reason there is a disconnect when doing art. So I picked up a Wacom Intous and a Huion G11K figuring it would be much better using a stylus. I was wrong. Pen or Pencil on paper, I am good to go. But even using the tablets for a few months I just cannot get comfortable with them My sister recently picked up a new loaded up Surface Book 2. After playing with it for a while, I loved drawing right on the screen. But, a bit hesitant to pay $3k for a laptop that only has a 1060 in it. For that money, a much higher spec laptop and a Wacom Cintiq (or cheaper equivalent) could be purchased. I need a new laptop anyway, Just trying to decide if a new laptop and some sort of pen display would be better. And if so, what pen display/tablets are good? Or is the Surface Book 2 as good as its price. I have to admit, it was pretty damn good for the short time I used it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like how I can draw on the screen directly, and play warframe on it as well. So yes, get it if you can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
