DRAWING TABLET HELP! SCREEN OR NO SCREEN?

[Rainy]

So ive been wondering this i have got a drawing tablet since i want to get into graphics it is one without a screen. but i cant seem to draw with it. it feels like i cant even draw now and im like 5 year old drawings. is it just me or should i just keep trying. I was thinkking of getting another one with a screen when i can afford it but cant atm. so what should i do just keep trying with the current one or just ditch it.

Also what software is good. currently i got photoshop. and i got illustrator which i dont have a idea how to use. XD

Keep at it man, I brought a cheap tablet a few years ago and still use it. It feels like you cannot draw and still does sometimes. Of course the screen ones are better but cost £1000+. If you can afford it buy that, but if not keep working at getting better and you can do it.

I have made a lot of server related artwork with a relatively cheap $200 Wacom tablet. I wouldn't say you need a screen tablet to get good at it.

Btw; i cant draw irl, but on a tablet it's easier because you can undo lines.

Goodluck!

Thanks. Also you got any software recommendations.

I personally use Clip Studio Paint Pro. It does cost around $40 or something, but it is worth it. I would also recommend Manga Studio.

Thanks

I've made decent art on a crappy 36 usd tablet. Just practice some ^^
Screens probably feels more natural but you just need to train up the hand-eye coordination

I really know that strange feeling when you dont really look on your Hand when you are drawing. But just try more and you will See it will be better and better. But sure a cintiq is awesome and I love mine xD

If you've already got photoshop, you don't really need to buy any other software (Might be biased c. Sure it may be complicated, but it's really powerful. Second software I recommend would be Clip Studio Paint/ Manga Studio it's meant for illustration and has a lot of nifty features and a good brush engine that does a nice stroke.

As for the tablet, I recommend staying with the no-screen for now, just keep practicing your hand-eye coordination, after a while it gets really intuitive. I'd recommend brushing up your skills on drawing with just paper, because although it's digital art and you can un-do a lot, it's quicker if you're already comfortable making strokes and getting sketches done with ease. I started off with the smallest wacom tablet, and earned enough thanks to those who commissioned me to get a cintiq.
