1. Do you have any painting experience? This is the premise.
2. Will you enter the professional field in the future?
3. What is your major? Illustration, CG original painting, animation, design, retouching, etc. )
4. What is the actual budget? This is the most practical problem.
Drawing board itself is a drawing tool, so different drawing boards only have different hardware parameters and expressions. In theory, anyone can use any hand-drawn board, just like buying a mobile phone. Actually, it's more about personal needs.
Here I want to popularize two concepts, consumer graphics tablet and professional graphics tablet. Consumer graphic tablets are used for mass consumption, and customers are usually design art students and amateurs (comics, animations, games); Graphic tablet, professional, very familiar with the professional field, the users are mainly industry practitioners and professional painters.
A good graphics card must meet the following three requirements:
1. Pressure sensitivity (At present, the existing graphics cards on the market are basically above 2048, and many even achieve 8 192. The board I'm using now is H950P, pressure-sensitive 8 192 of Kao. But whether it has reached the level of 8 192, I am not a professional inspector and cannot verify it. I can only say that the smoothness of lines is completely ok for me. So you can buy it and try it on yourself, enlarge the canvas and see if the line thickness is symmetrical. The more uniform the lines, the greater the pressure. )
Board size (in theory, the bigger the board, the more expensive it is. The bigger the board, the better, because the graphic flat is designed according to absolute coordinates. A hand-drawn board that is too big will be very tired to draw, and a board that is too small will be difficult to perform fine operations. Personally recommend the medium model! )
(Painting King H950p-almost two years is still strong! )
3. Reading speed (this parameter is directly related to the reaction speed of your pen. Some lines have been drawn for a long time, but the computer still delays the display, which is very slag. Just choose the one with high parameters ~)
What must be said here is that many people like to compare domestic products with foreign products, and often hear that the quality of foreign products is better, etc ... I wonder why we should say this in general? Do you buy boards for experiments all day? Besides, the domestic quality is not good, can the Quality Supervision Bureau let it go? You don't have to buy the most expensive graphics card tablet. Sometimes we pay more attention to their services. Quality takes time to verify! Finally, I wish novice friends an early choice for their own graphics tablet ~
