I built my entire illustration business on a 12 inch surface pro. No carpal tunnel issues. I like to be mobile and have everything fit into my luggage.

PYW or fucking shut up

A lot of pampered zoomers on this board. People used to use fucking 6 inch Wacom pads with no screen and make shit that would BTFO most people on this board. Your lineart doesn't suck because your tablet screen isn't 24+ inches.

>>5168463
Some of the best lineart was made on shitty intuos pads

better to buy HUIon Kamvas 16?

>>5168894
thank you,do you like the size?

>>5169068
I have the 24 pro and the regular 16, the only downside is the resolution, but thats because I like to work in large pixel formats like 8000x7000. It's pretty nice though and it feels great to draw on. The size isn't bad but you'll definitely want to make your photoshop layout and workflow minimalistic so you get the maximum amount of screen space to draw on.

i couldn't stand how hot my surface pro got.

>>5169287
This is the problem I have with the wacom companion 2. Plus the screen seems to build up "hand oil" a lot and makes it hard to see the color on the screen accurately. I had a little glove to wear with it but always forgot to use it and I've lost it in recent years.
It gets so hot and warms up my whole room too which I guess on the one hand encourages me to take more frequent breaks but really ruins my workflow.

Once it eventually dies on me I'm gonna go back to non-screen tablets honestly.

>>5168331
I have one. I like it but kind of want a bigger screen. Just save up for the bigger screen anon.

>>5169345
is the screen as big as pic?because that is enough for me

>>5168511
who the fuck are these people drawing on trains and airplanes and shit? Every single time the ipad is brought up the argument is "best tablet on the go". Nigga i've been drawing on my shitty Tab S4 in my bedroom for 3 years now. Who the fuck actually has the concentration to whip out a tablet and start drawing outside in public?

>>5168511
how did you manage to draw on that thing with wobbly lines or you got the first surface pro with actual Wacom pen tech instead of Ntrig

>>5169482
Why the fuck wouldn’t you want to draw on your tablet on a long boring commute with nothing else to do

Also I take my iPad to coffee shops to just chill and draw and talk to people if I feel like it. People sometimes come over and talk to me and give me compliments on my art when they see I’m painting. Drawing real people in the flesh being natural is fun too

>>5168331
As if this board isn't full of deranged fucking scum who want to drag me down and kill me. These anons are all trying to sabotage us.

>>5169068
It was fine, and I normally draw at 11x14inches 300dpi, thin lineart stuff.

The non 16 is smaller than the pro which has bigger side borders, so you could just pick it up and place it infront of your main monitor(for references)

Understood. I live in a frigid country so it's more of a comfort for me...

It's not for that in my case. I travel because I like living in different countries. I'll settle down for a few months and draw on a desk, don't worry.

Although I did occasionally draw a few nice pieces at the train station or airport. But the main point is to have the freedom to go wherever I want.

>>5169543
>how did you manage to draw on that thing with wobbly lines or you got the first surface pro with actual Wacom pen tech instead of Ntrig
It is shit, agreed, and I can't wait to get a galaxy tab for drawing. I guess I just learned to draw really fast lines in exactly the right way to get reasonable results. But I fully expect that moving to a better device will feel divine and my drawing skills will improve exponentially.

Just get an iPad with an apple pin and download one of the million digital art apps
Holy shit

People who can actually draw and aren’t embarrassed of their content. Some people draw things that aren’t porn and can therefore do it anywhere.

If you want to do crappy doodles, just buy a sketchbook, pencil and multiliner, no expensive toddler tablets needed.

>>5168331
no complaints about mine other than the price

>>5170626
isnt the price good

It's the one I have

>>5171607
do you like it?

Build quality is shit, but drawing exp is great, which is all that matters, cheap plastic is good enough to hold the screen, and contain the pen tech.

>>5168331

Wacom has 80% of the market share and great driver support with industry standard software. Imo it's a good buy, but why not just save up and buy the 22 HD?

Imo an intuous us best price wise if your monitor isn't shit, however if you want best price to performance I'd get a Wacom 24 pro. People on here will tell you that you don't need a 2000 dollars Wacom pro because they are salty, it's objectively superior to a regular drawing board.

>DISCLAIMER
>tools do not = skills

You can make good art on a napkin, if need be, ask yourself if you truly need a screen board, if you really can afford it and if your skills require it.

>other brands

Imo XP-pen is shit from personal experience though other people use it with no issues, Huion seems to work for friends of mine pretty well. If in doubt, buy Wacom, don't listen to haters, Wacom has 80% market share for a reason, same as Intel VS AMD, one is not always better than the other but you can look up specs/user tests and compile results to see what seems to be better.

Never trust reviews that got the product for free, it's not a good idea.

However an intuos is best

>>5170210

DO NOT buy chink shit like huion and xppen. DO NOT sponsor commie scum. I'd rather pay ten times for weeb wacom than touch some gookware. Fuck commies and fuck china.

What about Xp-Pen?

>All these posters dunking on OP for even considering a 16 inch purchase.

Are you telling me my art would improve if I bought a 24? Doubtful.

>>5172199
pyw

>>5172562
Xp pen is based, more than wacom, which is cringe.

>>5172596
They are probably just clowning on OP because he made a stupid ass tablet thread when there is a tablet general, no, a 24 inch will not make you draw better than a 13 inch tablet, it's cope.

All your favorite coomer works were done with wacoms

>>5168331
I was one of the generation of people who used a Wacom screenless tablet for a decade. what I didn't realize is that it was stunting my growth artistically. not until I got an iPad pro and procreate did I see the light. Simple stuff like pinch to zoom and rotate and an intuitive liquify tool are game changers. Not to mention an accurate digitizer and great high-res color accurate screen. I didn't know that I didn't need Photoshop and a keyboard to paint and draw. Also having 500 layers is pointless. Also the arm chip in an iPad pro has zero lag at any brush size and u can't say that about Photoshop with any Intel chip. I haven't touched my 2000 dollar MacBook pro since I got my used iPad pro.

>>5168933
This guy is such a terrible artist. I wouldn't listen to him

>>5169354
The digitizer sux tho. Don't buy it.

>>5174239

which the 16 ?

>>5168530

>>5174232
>Also having 500 layers is pointless.
No one uses 500 layers. The rest I agree with, but this one merely makes you sound really bitter that you have a layer limit. And the part about the keyboard seems a bit disingenuous too. It's fine to draw without a keyboard, but for certain types of work I certainly enjoy having hotkeys for all my favourite brushes, instant colourpicking both from the active layer and the composite image, the colour wheel, the hsl sliders, and a dozen other little things. It breaks my flow to have to open stupid menus or move my pen from the spot I'm working on.

>>5168933
It's the one Cameron Mark uses and he's really fucking good, but don't get the non-pro version, it's the one i got and the non-laminated screen is definitely a con. Really good screen tablet tho, the pen is great and the colors in the screen were pretty solid
