I myself have also tested it and i tested the Intuos pro medium. Tbh they are both great but for me the Intros pro was a bit more appealing because yeah the price was like 280 something and for me the separate draw pad just worked out better ^^
Thank you! I finally cleaned that up. Meanwhile started 3 more ..I have a habit of taking too long to finish a piece, then I lose interest in it and just start something else. I found 8 from recently i started and abandoned, that are decent enough to not delete, but not finished. There’s also been a number of drawings I felt I “outgrew” - became better before I finished them, and it would be easier to start from scratch than fix them. Anyone else thinking that?in24.1k
Lady Death Fanart Collectible: Part 6 Polypaint and base Hi, it’s time to share with you another part of the process to create this fanart piece. Polypaint As this is my first collectible fanart I didn’t have previous experience with polypaint so I tried my best and played a bit with it.I wanted to give a ghostly and eerie look to Lady Death, she is beautiful and deadly, but at the end of the day she is a woman that died and was reborn at hell as an avenging spirit, that’s why I gave her skin tone a bluish very cold tone.As you will see I gave myself some creative freedom to deviate from the traditional color scheme that this characater has in comics and illustrations.To add a bit of sensuality by painting some freckles on the face and the chest. The dark nature of this character was the perfect excuse to gave her a kind of goth make up, very dark shadows around the eyes, blue lips and fingernails. I know that the original character includes sexy red lips but I wanted this girl to have a sexy but at the same time creepy look, that’s why we can see some thin veins emanating from her eyes. The biggest chromatic change I did for this character is at the hair. Lady Death has a characteristic white weavy hair but in my fanart I decided to gave her a very saturated blue color.The reason behind this wasn’t only an aesthetic choice. I want that the face area strongly pulls the attention of the viewer so this area needed a stronger contrast. Another reason is that I want her to have a more modern look, as I mentioned before, I’m strongly attracted to women with goth/punk look. I gave myself half an hour or more to analyse the work of experienced sculptors that create collectibles and I discovered that the use of darker values on the skin is often applied to create a greater sense of volume and three-dimensionality. I found that areas with heavy ambient occlusion are the perfect places to paint with darker colors in order to increase the separation between different forms. Even though she has a bluish skin tone, I used a bit of warmer hues in areas that, in real life, tend to go towards red and pink, this is very obvious in the nose, cheeks, and knuckles. Thinking with a logical mind it’s completely absurd to have warmer tones on the body of a zombie like creature but I didn’t want to limit myself by using only blue tones, it looks boring and artificial. In real life these colors are created by blood vessels in areas where the skin is very thin. ** Scythe **for her weapon I applied a cool gray with some warmer variations, this color scheme is influenced by the work of H.R giger. Base I’d like to talk about the design for the base which, to be honest, I forgot to develop along with the character.My main idea with the base is to show that Lady Death inhabits a very sterile and arid land, at the end of the day she is at hell.You can see a that she walks over dirt and rocks, a sign that she’s surrounded by death and loneliness. As part of the landscape we can see some bones and skulls to reinforce the idea of lack of living creatures, yet we can see three hands that try to reach her legs.This hands represent that all creatures are subordinated to her power and seek an evil blessing with a simple touch of the princess of the damned.1- The hand with skin burns represents the souls of those who are newcomers to hell, tortured souls that suffer for the sins comitted on earth.2- The hand with greenish rotten skin and pustules is the reminder of the decay that has infected the souls of those who have been trapped and have forgotten their humanity3- Last but not least, the hand of a demon shows that even dark creatures and entities bow before her presence. The cherry on the top, at least in my vision, are the simese twins that emerge from the ground, this malevolent creatures remind us that in hell there’s only perversion and any trace of innocence is lost. Thanks for reading till this pointI’m really happy to be very close to finish this creative journey, last but not least it’s mandatory to talk about splitting the sculpture in several pieces to be printed, this will be my last entry before showing the final rendered images. See yaMay Zbrush be with youin1.4k

Thank you @daceronine! If I remember I save in google cloud, I will have to stick a note to do it more often. Lamp is from life. Poses are from refs but I look at refs for a while and then try to do it myself and look it up if needed. Outfits and rest is from imagination Something went wrong while installing system so we will have to wipe everything again... pc works but something is wrong. We will wait till internet is done and I will save everything on cloud this time Threads came out in eu. It's been 3 days and I had more engagement than after half a year on instagram. It feels really nice I hope it stays this way A portrait of old dude. It's the same character I posted a while ago. Inspired by Bayard Wu work. At first I thought of him as a bear but I named him Fenrir and I think wolf suits him better. Eye gave me a bit of hard time but I think it is fine now. I focused on face and forgot about area below. The way I draw hair clashes with greying hair. I had the same problem while doing Lohse's white hair. Does it looks like it is greying here? I love how desaturated red looks blue there. I keep lying to myself that I will use different color scheme but It all comes down to this blue and yellowish one it is just flipped this time Have a great day!in47.6k
Too bad i already have a 27" Cintiq. Would have loved to have a smaller one.

i finally bought one!! Im in love with this tablet!
A huge con though. No user manual!! 
I have no clue how the buttons work and the tablet goes on standby after a few minutes and i have no clue how to activate the tablet without shutting it off first and then press the button again to start it...
Hey, I don't remember my tablets coming with a manual either. Your tablet should be similar to a computer and I think you can get it out of sleep mode by touching the screen with your pen...?? Since that's your mouse. Hope that helps.
Maybe check the Windows settings, too.
ome would think Wacom is this simple, nope!
Doesn't wake up after touching it with a pen. The tablet isnt that similar to a pc btw. It is an identity of its own. Better than a pc in my opinion.
But I just need a manual to explore it.

Been thinking about this tablet myself, probbably will be going for a intuos first though as i don't have a tablet yet and looking to get into digital art one thing i wondered about though was the difference between 13'' and the 16'' and 1440p vs 4k i heard for proffesional work you'd want to go with the 4k for the increased resolution since i hear the pros use really large resolutions on thier work. My question though is will i be ok with a 13'' 1440p screen for any proffesional needs i might have in the future or should i spend the extra 1000 for the 4k 16'' ?
I'm using a 4k iMac and it's amazing. Never thought it would be that great. My Cintiq 27" is nowhere near that screen and colour quality. However, I don't miss that at all when I paint with my 13" Cintiq Pro. The screen is top notch and the distance between the canvas and pen seems to be less than a 27" Cintiq. You can easily use it for professional photo editing, if you don't mind it being a Windows.
I also bought that new Cintiq Pro 13" last week and it looks better than the Intuos and 27" Cintiq. No idea how it is compared to the 16", though! Thought I'd try out the smaller version first and even though it is a bit smaller than I expected (being used to 27") I wouldn't buy a bigger one if I plan on taking it with me often! If you want to use it at home only I'd go for the 16" : )
If you want I can send you pictures of the two Cintiqs and Intuos S together but i don't have a 16" to compare it with.
I would be interested in seeing that size comparison indeed looking at starting out with a intuos art which should be the size of a intuos S and it would be interesting to see the size differences was just interested to know if the 4k resolution vs 1440p would make it or break it for proffesional digital artists like concept artists for video games etc do you feel like you have enough room on your 13'' compared to your 27'' trying both the 13'' and 16'' is not gonna be an option for me though, unless i pay for both which would be a total cost of 5000 dollars, which is way to much money for me 
If you want a size comparison with my Intuos you'll have to wait for another week. I'm currently on a holiday so i don't have it with me. I do have a picture of the 13" with the 27" on my phone.
I think the 27" is way way too large. I don't even use half of the screen. It would've been better if it were only 24" or 22", unless you're the size of a bear and need that space...
Honestly, I don't think a 4k is that necessary. This series is the only one with a 4k screen and most pros don't even own one. Nor does every artist have a 4k monitor. I'd concentrate more on the screen's colours and herz.
Before I forget, I do not have enough room to draw while drawing on a 13". That could be because I'm used to a 27" but I don't mind as long as i can draw anywhere I want since I have several jobs.
Ah, no worries! that's understandable
I guess zooming in and out kinda makes up for the smallers size, but yeah you make a good point, 4k cintiqs weren't a thing before yet they were used by pros so i should be fine with a 1440p for the future
think I will save up for the 13'' in that case
for now i'm just gonna get a cheap intuos to get me started as i probbably won't have the funds for a mobilestudio pro for atleast another 6 months hehe
As promised, the Mobile Cintiq and the Intuos Manga S next to each other. You can use the pen as reference too. The blue pen is Intuos.
In the second picture you can clearly see how much of the screen can be used for drawing. I think it's 13" but the length of the whole tablet is actually 15", like a normal laptop.
IF you ever plan on getting one I recommend getting a USB C to USB converter so you can plug in a USB stick or your mouse for when you decide to use it as a normal computer... or game on it.
Oh my god I adore it. As I am working on an Intuos S creative pen and my laptop which does not even have too good colors, I feel in a need of some better tablet. Though even when trying to work as much as I can, as a student it's hard to earn so much money 
Guess I'll be saving up for it for at least half a year and starving :DDD
I had to use the money I had saved for my holiday in Japan but for me it was worth it. Now I'm back to being poor, too.
Haha Nice! ^^ who needs holiday anyway right? Alright, challenge accepted. Gonna save money hard x)
Thanks for that!
I have a question ) can you connect it to pc as cintiq with usual usb-usbc converter? I mean without fancy wacom converter.
Good question. Not sure. I use an iMac and use some kind of dvi cable, I think. Like usb cables there are a dozen different types of dvi cables.
Unfortunately I can't try it out because I'd first have to get the usb cable of my Cintiq out which means I'd have to detach the 27" Cintiq from the arm and get the screws out from the back. Sounds easy but that thing is so heavy. Another option is to get myself a a new female to male usb cable or whatever they're called 
That still doesn't guarantee a direct interaction between my monitor and Cintiq pro. All the previous (newer) Cintiq models require two cables; a USB cable for interaction with the pen and an HDMI/DVI cable for the screen.
My guess is that with only a USB you can use the Cintiq as a normal tablet only. The USB C converter I'm currently using isn't from Wacom and Wacom's has two slots??
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

I LOVE my tablet. I have the same as Kiger. I saved up money for over a year to go to Japan as well but I bought this tablet instead of the Companion 2 or a Cintiq.
At school I previously worked on a smaller Cintiq but it was horrible. The distance between the display and my pen was just too much. But this MobileStudio tablet is the best. It feels very natural and the 13 inch size makes it perfect to carry around.
And guess what. It makes NO sound. When it does, it makes less noise than me blowing out candles on a cake. ^_^
I know it can be really hard to make the right decision but once I opened the box all of my doubts were gone and I still am in love with the tablet.
So, buy it if you need a tablet and have a job to save money for it. It will be worth your money. If not, return it.
The biggest con for me was that my nibb died on me after using the tablet for just a few weeks. It started scratching and making noises so I changed it to of the other nibs. I love the felted nib and want to buy more but as far as I know they don't sell any replacement nibs yet. Which is very strange...
My post looks like a Wacom propaganda but it really is as good as I described it. At least mine is.

of course , the new model is batter than the old one , you can choose the new wacom MSP Tablet .
I Use a XP-Pen Artist 15.6 Pro Graphics Tablet With Screen . because I already have a working PC, I only need graphic tablet monitor .
It prices in at $439 with a neat, optional adjustable stand. I just ordered one. Worth mentioning is that the resolution is 1920 x 1080, and features of 88% NTSC Color Gamput . no parallax .
the battery-free stylus has the 8000 levels of pressure sensitivity and support 60 degrees of pen tilt . Works beautifully, no lag when drawing .
