Thanks, it was one of the first things I drew with my Bamboo tablet. I was still getting used to the idea of looking at the screen as opposed to my hand and in the process of learning about all of the different things I could do with the software. (The pose of Godzilla is actually based on my Godzilla 2000 figure from Bandai Creations)

I've been thinking about looking into getting a tablet after seeing what you can do with it. Does the Bamboo tablet come with a art software with it? How does it all work? Any suggestions on what tablet I should get?

The Bamboo tablet I got did come with some software, but they are more like samplers. The one I used the most was Autodesk Sketchbook Express, which is what I used for the picture above. I later bought the complete version of the software, Autodesk Sketchbook Pro [link] . It's easy to learn and quite inexpensive. The tablet I use is the Wacom Bamboo Create [link] . Bamboo is Wacom's "cheaper" line of tablets. The Bamboo create is the larger of the line, with a surface area to draw on about the size of a sheet of note book paper. I would recommend one out of the Bamboo line, because at the price, if you decide you don't like using a tablet, it won't hit you in the bank account like the Intuos series [link] or the Cintiq series [link] .

Yeah, I was looking at them. I noticed they had cheaper alternatives which is what I would go for. I'm not sure if I would be able to get into digital. I want to try though.
