>get drawing tablet for Xmas
>it's uncomfortable as fuck to use and overcomplicates everything
Seriously I would rather just stick to pencil and paper. I honestly hope my father kept the receipt for this shit. I even had to stop using the writing tool and just went back to my keyboard to finish this post.

a poor workman blames his tools
I'll buy it off you

Nice catchprase abe lincoln
What if the tools arent meant for the job?
A poor workman fails to do the job with the correct tools

You have to get used to it. Canvas rotation will help you make better lines. Use a stabilizer like Lazy Nerumi, Paint tool Sai as one incorporated.
>>25341939
He already has the tools, pencil and paper.

Or I could just rotate my piece of paper instead of twisting my arm and clicking three buttons at once.

i don't understand how this tablet can be used by thousands of other professionals but must be incorrect because you are unable to use it
>>25342004
then the workman will need to fix his tool and not use it as an excuse for his failure

You can't play videogames then?
>>25341891
Did you ask for it, or did he just purchase it for you as a surprise?
Have you had an opportunity to use a drawing tablet prior to you recieving one of your own?
>>25341891
It takes about a week to really get used to it. Put a piece of thin paper like computer paper or tracing paper over it. That should make it easier to get used to. There's a slight learning curve when you first start but it won't take long to get used to it
>>25342103
stop being a cunt you can now make legit computer drawings and mess with colors, layers, color theory n shiet, practice with it and you'll be glad you got it goddamn.
>>25342209
Asked for it. I had prior use of one with a friend of mine.
>>25341891
You get used to it, when I used to use mine I preferred painting right off the bat instead of drawing with it. Start with a nice mid tone background and just paint some forms and you will see that it's actually pretty easy.
>>25342291
I don't even draw though.

When you tried it, what did you think of it?
Strange, right?
>>25342417
I thought it was okay, all I did was doodle a smiley man.
You've had it less than a week
There is a huge adjustment period with tablets and once you figure out how to into digital art it makes life a shitton easier than drawing/coloring by hand

I see. Nice job.
Stick to pencils and paper. Best of luck.
My parents got me a wacom tablet for Christmas when I was 15-16 and I had the same issue, but my friend said you get what you pay for. The cheaper ones aren't calibrated well.
