Need advice for drawing-tablet. (PC)

Postby IMightBeHere » January 19th, 2011, 12:50 pm

Hey

Does someone has experience with drawing tablets? I'm considering buying one myself for drawing, but I don't want one of 100 euro+ (because it is not for professional use).

Are the Waco drawing tablets any good?
More specific: I'm thinking of buying the 'Waco Bomboo Pen S'.
Anyone has experience with this?

Thx!

I have a very basic Wacom one, I think the one you mentioned; cost me somewhere around $60 US dollars. I'd recommend it; seems durable and works for me. Then again, I'm not a serious artist, so I'm not sure what an artist who really needs their tablet to be able to do a loooot of things would think.
