Does anyone know why my drawing tab is doing this?

I have. Huion kamvas pro 13 gt-133. This morning when I booted up to draw it had sort of this vertical zone that the stylus kept sliding off. What is the issue and what is there a fix if anyone's aware?

Need recommendations for new tablet laptop PC for CSP.

I am looking to purchase a portable laptop pc to use CSP on. I have a stationary PC with a Cintiq but I'm seeking a portable PC laptop I can use CSP on with a good, responsive pen tool using Windows.

I would prefer it be solid, dependable, then economical. What would you suggest.

Does anyone know where I could find a free/used drawing tablet?

Hey everyone, I’m hoping someone here might know of a place I could reach out to.

My PC mouse recently broke to the point that I can’t really do digital art anymore. I’ve wanted a drawing tablet for a long time, but my mom and I are both disabled and live on a very fixed income of less than $20,000 a year, so we're unfortunately not able to afford one.

I’m trying to get back into drawing and hopefully start making YouTube videos and art that could eventually help us financially. I’m not looking for anything fancy; even an older or used XP-Pen, Huion, Wacom, or similar tablet would give me the ability to start creating again.

Does anyone know of Reddit communities, giveaways, donation programs, artists, companies, or places I could email that sometimes help people in situations like mine with used or donated art equipment? I've emailed XP-Pen, and that's it so far.

And if someone happens to have an old tablet they're no longer using, I'd definitely be interested as well. I'm willing to show my artwork and what I plan to do with it, and I’d genuinely put it to use.

I'm really embarrassed to even post this, but I figured asking was better than giving up.

Thank you to anyone who can point me in the right direction.

Do you notice a big difference between Drawing Tablets and normal tablets?

Hello! Popping in with a quick question : do you feel a big difference between a drawing tablet (\*\*with a built-in screen), and a tablet (IPad, Samsung etc.) when producing art? I'm looking to invest in my digital art and I'm not sure which to choose

I know that the drawing tablet is professionally created to be more responsive to pressure and support larger canvases, but for those that post on social media and do commissions, do you have advice? I see a lot of people use normal tablets and it has the advantage of being used for other things too..

Apple vs Android

Hey all,

I'm sure this gets asked a lot but I'm curious what everyone's thoughts are for drawing tablets. I love going to a coffee shop and doodling so its great to have mobile tablet that doesn't need a computer. However, I've been tempted with getting an iPad forever now. Ive used a Samsung Tablet in the past, and now the XP magic pen Tablet for awhile. It works ok but crashes from time to time.

I'm looking to upgrade to something maybe stronger. I like typical sketching, pixel art, and nomad scuplting. Are there good android tablets out there with quality apps or should I finally get over my hipster ways and get an ipad. Procreate looks solid. There a few good pixel apps and ceators I watch that use Nomad also use ipads... but what are you all's thoughts?

Drawing on iPad sucks! Who’s with me?

What are your thoughts on drawing on iPad using the Apple Pencil and what other tablet do you use, if any?

Drawing on iPad with just the Apple Pencil takes so much time to get used to, if you ever do at all. The glass screen just sucks as there is not much friction between the screen and pencil. I know some screen protectors can somewhat help, but I’ve heard a lot of them still kind of suck.

I have an XP-pen magic drawing pad and love it compared to the iPad!

New iPad or drawing tablet/Wacom Cintiq?

Hi so I’m looking for opinions on what kind of new drawing medium I should get. I’m bad at making decisions myself and I want to hear other people’s thoughts or experiences with either medium.

I previously had an iPad that had a good run, almost ten years, but it’s stopped working in certain parts of the screen so it’s obviously made drawing hard.

I’m debating whether to get a new iPad or invest in a drawing tablet. The one I was recommended was the Wacom Cintiq 16. I’m only familiar with Procreate as it’s all that I’ve been using, however I don’t want to use Procreate for the rest of my life. I got a cheap drawing pad on Amazon and briefly used it in combination with Krita but I found the projection onto my monitor uncomfortable, I’d prefer to draw directly onto a screen. Any opinions or advice are welcome. Thank you.

Looking for tablet for someone who overgrips pens

Hello! I've never used a tablet, and primarily use a mouse so far for art. I am looking for a tablet to get, but I have problems holding a pencil/pen (I overgrip it and press down too hard/got in trouble at school for it too.) I'm wondering if there's any tablets that people recommend for someone someone who overgrips a pen?

I want a drawing tablet, but I have no idea what I should get.

I already own a Galaxy Tab S9. I’ve never owned a drawing tablet before, but I’m looking for something a bit more professional rather than an entry-level tablet. I’m not a beginner when it comes to art—I’m already quite good at drawing, so I don’t want an entry-level model.

I’m planning to buy it with the first money I earn myself, so I really don’t want to regret my purchase. Based on my own research, I’m leaning toward XP-Pen.

I’ll mainly be using it for things like comic art, illustration, and maybe some animation as well.

I'm currently considering XP-Pen, especially the Artist/Artist Pro models, but I'm also open to Wacom or other brands.

My main priorities are drawing feel, screen quality, reliability and a large workspace. I’ve also recently started using Clip Studio Paint, so that’s what I’ll be using on the new tablet.
What would you recommend for my use case?

Damage to Drawing Tablet

There's some damage on my xp pen deco 1 v3 and I thought there was already a protector on it and now the damage has gotten more annoying I looked into it and found that it doesn't come with a protector on it and I'm wondering if this damage is permanent because there does seem to be a layer of some sort of protective film. Should I put the protector on that it came with or is it too late?

Looking for a tablet to buy

My phone has been really slow for a while now, but i dont really wanna use my phone for anything other than texting and calling anyways, so I thought a tablet might be a good choice! Since i really wanna get into digital art, recommendations for pens are welcome as well.

Things I want to be able to do on tablet: draw, edit (like transition edits, edits with a lot of layers), watch shows and movies, text friends, and just other usual stuff.

I know for editing and drawing you want a lot of ram, but how much? Is 8 enough or do I need more?

I’m not entirely sure about a price range, but maybe something around 500? 600 would be kinda pushing it. But cheaper is always ok.

Any help is appreciated :)

How good is Huion Kamvas 13 actually?

I watched many videos about Huion Kamvas 13 and there are many opinions that are completely differrent from one another. There are people who tested it for a week or so and they were extremely happy, and there are people who have used Huion Kamvas 13 for a year or more and almost all of them are unhappy and report like 100 different problems they had with that tablet. I know that many digital artists will say "it's only 200-300 euros display tablet, it's cheap so it's understandable", but for me that amount of money is definitely not cheap and I wouldn't like to spend that much money on smth that has this many potential problems...
I thought of buying this display tablet myself, but after watching so many reviews I am not sure what to think anymore.

In my country I dont have many options to choose from but I am considering to buy smth cheaper like pen tablet if Huion Kamvas 13 is not so reliable long term

Looking for a cheap yet reliable tablet

so im looking for a new tablet that will not die on me and preferably have these specs :

8 GB RAM

256+ GB of storage

10+ inch display

a good battery

around 160-170 USD

Got gifted this as a gift from my late Grandparent.

It was given to me when going through the items left behind and I took it as I have been thinking about getting a Wacom tablet. Its a Wacom Bamboo, the oldest of the line and I don’t have the software disc that it comes with, I do not know what to do with it. Thoughts?

Krita or procreate

I recently started college as a freshman, and since I’m in Liberal Arts I was given an iPad with an Apple Pencil. I’ve seen some friends using procreate for digital art.

I bought my own drawing tablet last year meant for a computer. I used Krita a few times, but haven’t really touched it since starting Drawabox and trying to finish my sketchbook. Now I’m debating whether to use my laptop(not that new) and drawing tablet(Xp-pen Artist 13.3 pro) to make digital art with Krita, or use the new iPad with procreate.

I only ever made 1 artwork with Krita. Also spending money isn’t a problem for me.

Edit: I somehow FORGOT to ask which I should use, Krita or Procreate. Mb
