Yeah but an ipad and apple pencil last longer than 1800 pencils and sheets of paper
>>
>>51859704
>b... but muh notes
>>
>>51860077
I challenge you to test that theory. That's a lot of fucking pencils anon.
>>
>>51860170
Ok here we go

The best I could find on google was that the average pencil holds enough graphite to draw a line about 35 miles long or to write roughly 45,000 words.

35 miles long would be 184800 feet which is 429 square feet

One standard sheet of 8 1/2 x 11 inch sheet of A4 paper is 0.65 square feet

So one pencil could effectively cover roughly 660 sheets of paper so obviously you're going to run out of paper first

Now you'd just have to figure out the best paper to pencil ratio for 900 dollars and what the actual cost of a pencil and paper is but you could figuer that out after you figure out how much you need because you could probably get a deal buying in bulk

>pencil + paper = $0,5
Except pencils and papers for art cost a lot more than that
around 10 times more than that for the cheap stuff

Lol consumer tablets last 5 years at best. Nice fail there
>>

>consumer tablets

Way to lump the crappy tablets in with quality apple products

Man you could even re-sell a 5 year old ipad for at least 60% of it's price because they're so good

I bet you cant even resell paper after you use it once
>>
>>51860077
Really? Use an iPad 1 recently? How well did it work?

It came out in 2010, and in mid 2014 Apple updated iOS past the iPad 1's hardware capabilities.

I've been using the same mechanical pencil for 7 years.

1*500 pack of drawing paper 9*12 inches is $16.57 (http://www.amazon.com/Sax-Drawing-Paper-pound-inches/dp/B003U6SH10/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1450112096&sr=8-5&keywords=drawing+paper)

1*30 pack of pencilcs is $5.97 (http://www.amazon.com/Dixon-Ticonderoga-Wood-Cased-Pre-Sharpened-13830/dp/B006CSPZK4/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1450112250&sr=8-3&keywords=pencil)

2*30 pack of pencilcs + 53*500 packs of drawing paper is $890.15

That's 26,500 sheets of paper. 9*12 inches is 0.75 square feet, meaning according to your info one pencil will be enough for ~572 sheets of paper. 26500/572 ~46.3 meaning 60 pencilcs should be more than enough. Even if you used 10 papers a day every single day of the year (10*365 = 3650) it would still take ~7.26 years to use it all up (26500/3650 ~ 7.26).

>>51859704
literally no one uses appleshit to fucking draw .
buy a fucking wacom m8 .
>>
yeah but pencil+paper lags more
>>
>>51860944
thanks I was too lazy to figure it out further
>>
>>51860944
Well there you have it OP

Cold hard facts say they're exactly the same price and length of usefulness

Can't beat math
>>
>>51860697
>$5 is A LOT
It is A LOT more expensive than 0.5. 10 times more.
>>
>>51860969
This.
Apple products are not designed for drawing.
>>
>>51860935
As somebody who owns a near-mint 1st generation Ipad, it works fine. It feels slow but that's probably just from getting used to newer tech. Some apps lag a little on it and the latest iOS it can run is 5 iirc, but if somebody used it just to read I could see them being happy with that. The battery on it though is insane, I could get 18 hours of non-stop usage out of it with one charge. If I wasn't using it it could idle for months, not even joking about that one.

man, that A LOT of cash compared to $900

Glad I'm a poor hipster with piles of debt and bout a $900 tab and pen to do my art. Since I really need to convert my Art degree into money.
>>
>>51862443
In that pricerange you might as well go ahead and buy a wacom.
>>
>>51860512

Ipads are consumer tablets you know

And nobody uses the first gen iPad anymore.

QED
>>
>>51861149
Most iFags will want to replace their iPad after 3 years.
>>
Then why do most mango artistas use wacom or whatever now?

Any active stylus is designed for digital drawing.

>>51865095
Sure, just draw up some stale copy pasta and shitty viral videos and you've got pretty much the same experience.
>>
>>51859704
Why didn't anyone on this board complain about touch screen stylus when Apple didn't sell them?
>>
>>51865206
Microsoft shills man, they're real and they come here.
I've seen some pretty funny shit from when the Xbox was about to be released etc.
They're too blatant.
>>
>>51863029
For $900 you can get a motherfucking Cintiq, why the fuck would you suck Apple cock?
>>
>>51865443
An iPad pro is more portable, will boot faster and run cooler than a cintiq companion. iPad is cheaper too, that's the main reason I got mine.
>>
>>51865443
Or just use a flagship android tablet from another company. A Samsung tab S for has a 2560 x 1600 screen and costs ~€400 (depends on where you live, and where you buy it).
>>
As a shit artists all I'll say is that I'd gladly go into a terrible and horrific debt for anything with a ctrl-z function.

No they won't. In one year there is a new pad or a new pen that needs to be bought. Or the pad is slow as fuck and the pen won't work as well
>>
>>51859704
thank you for the reminder op

most people with an iq above 70 knows that apple is shit.
