Tablet stylus = numb?

<< < (2/3) > >>

Interesting read.  It definately follows twentyfour's advice of draw big, although with that benefit a Cintiq gives.  Too bad I can't afford a Cintiq, let alone a bigger tablet. :(

Currently saving up for a new scanner since mine is PC only, and it looks like a new phone since thats decided to start shutting off and turning back on at random moments (even if untouched). :(

At the very least, I've definately gotta try loosening up.  All the real line work is done first with pencil, then later with pen.  Mostly all I do with the tablet is touch up and fix line errors, fill, shade, and assemble so its not like I should be really tense.

torg:
hm i dont have that problem. but berhaps you should try resting your hand in a different way, perhaps you're shutting some nerves...

Sideways:
I have the EXACT SAME problem!

Do you have the tablet with the ridiculously small drawing surface (like mine)?

Because I think that's why.

You're drawing out an 1800 x 1200 image (most of my comics are this size when I'm working on them) on a 5x4" surface...

I'd really like to get a better tablet, and soon.

mosfet:
I think mine are around 5500x6900.  Its probably overkill :P
I'm using the 5x4 Graphire which I think is kind of small for the 1600x1200 19" monitor I use.

Sideways:
Yeah, you have the same tablet as I, only you draw in an even more insane resolution!

But then again, I only run 1024x768, on a 17" monitor (it's an old LCD that won't support a resolution any higher than that)... so it's a nuissance to draw in a resolution any higher than what I already use.
