Description
happy birthday and merry chrismas to me! ^_^I mean, i still use my intuos, like drawing the faces on this photo... but cintiq is soooooo niceeeeeeee
*GRINS*so far, my views of the cintiq:
pretty cool! only 1 single dead pixel, which i dont notice much of, but i DO notice there is this little tiny dust/smudge UNDER the glass, actually theres two of them! now that is bugging me >
EDIT: I keep on forgetting to say, all problems fixed. Wacom support is excellent, we worked things out, and now i have a new one)

Question is the glass on the cintiq thick or thin?
someone is selling me one working but with cracks on the corners for a really good price,
I just want to know if the glass would be easy to repair.

Wow, I want a cintiq so bad. But it's expencive, haha. So I guess I'll have to "settle" for intuos 4 for now.
Which cintiq have you got? There are two types right?

i have a 15 year old tablet that is starting to break down on me and im buying intuos... would you say more sensitivity is better? i know intuos is more sensitive then cintiq (comparing latest models dunno what models those are) and im used to the weird hand eye coordination issue. but im not sure how much difference it actually makes
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i havent used the newer intuos that has greater sensitivity so i dont know the difference between the two. im surprised your tablet lasted that many years o_O;
get the one that you think you can 'make back' the money spent, if that makes any sense.

haha uh... ok O.o i already kno which one im gettin but thnx lol. yea my tablet lasted so long because rather then push really hard to get the maximum brush size to go, i just increased the size of the brush so that using a bit of pressure but not grinding the pen would get the size i need, saved the nib some trouble and gave less wear to the pen lol. and i used that thing 24 hours a day lol

do you find drawing on the cintiq is just like drawing on paper because im saving up for a cintiq. and also should i go with the big 21ux or the 12? are they the same just not in size? and did you find i harder to draw on intous becuase your not looking at the intous while drawing? sorry for asking so many questions
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
no, cintiq is not like drawing on paper. if anything it feels more like painting on a canvas more.
It really depends on the person too. i dont like the 12" one since i think its too small.
The main reason why I prefer my cintiq to the intous is that I feel like using cintiq keeps my practice with "real" medium better than the intuos. I had no problem with drawing with just a plain tablet before I got the cintiq, nor do I think it is really such a great advantage or anything like that.
So for me, drawing on the cintiq and intuos is pretty much the same, but cintiq's just cooler
As one of my professors in college said when someone asked what kind of brush to use, "Oh I just pick the coolest looking one that works". hehe.
Of course, I know its a lotta money to spend too. So I'd just say, unless you know you can make back the money you spent from using it, dont get it.

ok thanks for answering all my questions and dont worry it wont be a waist of money for me i just find my bamboo fun really hard to draw on even though i practice with it all the time so this i'm hoping will help me get what i am looking for.
PS. your art is amazing!

wow. Is that the intuos medium? How do you like it?

Intuos works well

I so want a Cintiq, but they are expensive. . .
I'll settle for a large Intuos -^^

Hahahaa, I lol'd xD
Hmm, I have two questions, would you mind answering them?
What size is your intuos?
Anddd, I have my own tablet, a Bamboo Fun, but it's really small xD I use my tablet all the time, do you think I should get an intuos?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The drawing area of the intuos is 9x12
I'd say either get it now or once your bamboo breaks. I never used a Bamboo before, but I had 2 (or was it 3) of the old graphires and they worked out fine for as long as i used it.

Nice Cintiq! ^_^ I recently got a Cintiq 12WX. I have the same problem w/ the pixel being off. I was talking to Wacom to see if I could get a new one but I think they said it wasn't possible...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yea, they cant do much about dead pixels, but if you see any specks of dust in the glass you probably can get them to fix it!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh okay then, thanks so much for your help!
By the way in the other pic w/ your tablet pc, is the tablet pc really nice? It looks great I was thinking about purchasing one
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
its no where near as good as the cintiq lol, but its nice to have with you at a con or something.

I am going to be getting an Intous3 9x12 soon, I was wondering, do you need to have a well performing graphics card to create "stunning" pieces of art?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
nope. graphics card issues are mainly if you are trying to work in 3d modeling. drawing wise pretty much anything will do.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I currently use a graphire. I may upgrade to an intuos in a year or whenever I get better at drawing(mainly use it for photo editing). The cintiqs look really nice but they cost a ton.

XD I'll finally be getting a Cintiq at the end of this month after a year of drooling over it...I never understood how someone can draw on one surface and have it appear on another like with the Intuos...I'm sure if I tried it, I'd be able to catch on, it's just a tad odd. n_n;;
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I bet! I'm so looking forward to it!

Isn't it possible to draw directly on an intuos3???
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
you mean like, a screen on the intuos? then no.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
by the way....since you seem to be an expert on tablets.....how much dows a cintiq cast???like 3000 bugs or sth????
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
you can get them cheaper on ebay, but if you buy them directly from wacom it costs around 2000 (depends on which model too)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ok thanks a lot...nice gallery!

Whoooo... Is the Cintiq the one lying on the desk? The one with the tears? Cause that's what I need to get. How much are they about? I know already that it's worth getting, but that's waaaaaay beyond what my budget can handle right now. T^T
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
nono the sad one is the intuos. cintiq you can get one now for about a thousand dollars
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Sorry. I didn't think to look twice, yeah, the Cintiq is the awesome one! XD Ooooh, a thousand bucks? Alright then, it's not that bad.... *pouts*
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
dead pixels??? wait till your two dead pixles start to grom to like 2 hundred
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yea, about that. sent it back to wacom and i have a brand new cintiq afterword. this was like a year ago lol.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Wow....
-jealous-
Right now i have the money to buy an intuos, but I'm in sort of a dilemma.
my graphire just broke and I'm not sure if I should buy another one or buy the intuos because I'm afraid there's going to be a big difference in using them, such as how sensitive the Intuos is compared to the graphire...
But my dad also wants to buy a cintiq...
I wish I was rich!
-pulls out hair-
Your cintiq is looking mighty sexy there. xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well you cant tell the difference if you switch to a intuos, its only if you are used to more sensitivity and switch back to a graphire that you will be able to tell.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Awesome!!! But why do you have two?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i had one, then got the other. (i have three to be exact) but now i only have the cintiq at home and brought the other one to work lol.

Dead pixel!!! what do you mean dead! like you can't draw on it!!! That SUCKS! so does that mean that it is not guaranteed? is there a possibility that i might have more dead people ! i meant pixels :S
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
