Any Wacom users know of a good one?

 

Whats the prob?

I use the Graphire2

 

No real problem... I just see other's Wacom works and drool.. and wonder what the eff I haven't figured out about it yet. Even if I do a trace it looks like shizzle.

 

Are you tracing in Photoshop or in Illustrator?

Also tracing isn't as easy as it looks because most people trace the outline then go back and clean the lines up, Illustrator tends to be a better program for trace rendering also

I think more than anything else it just takes time to get used to....I use mine for just about everything now.

 

photoshop...

Haven't played with Illustrator since HS... maybe I'll have to find me a copy.

 

How long have you been working with the tablet?

I know it took me about a week bfore I got real comfortable with it and playing with opacity and coverage percentages help a lot as well as quick strokes since it does sense how hard you press (to a point).

I would say just practice with it whenever youget a chance and maybe check out www.worth1000.com and play with a few of the tutorials in there. Not really Wacom tutorials but it will help you gain technique.

 

I've had the thing for over a year.. I've played with it only about 5 or 6 times...

I'm a slacker. h:
