  Thanks Robert! I use the pen and tablet for everything but acrylic painting. I take a rough draft and refine it completely. With my disability it is a bit hard anymore to lean over a desk or drafting table so I started using the tablet pen. It does take some getting used because it is different than drawing on paper.  And it is easy on the eyes for detail because you can blow up the drawing to any size for corrections once you get used to the pixels. Sometimes you do get a jagged edge but with patience that too can be conquered.

  You should give it a go and see what happens. I am sure it is not for everyone but at least if you do not like it you can used it for coloring your drawings in a fast simple way.

  I was against using one for a long time I never thought I would ever would saying in my mind.. 'it is not really art because I can't feel the paper or get my hands messy' but here I am. I pray before each cartoon or art work and it always seems to work out!

  Hi Robert I am not a professional though I do cartoons for the disabled and do one for a mag. I have the Wacom intuos3 pen and tablet but just ordered the Bamboo pen and touch craft  http://www.wacom.com/bamboo/bamboo_pen_touch.php/ for the touch feature.

  You can get it online at  http://www.amazon.com/Wacom-CTH460-Bamboo-Touch-Tablet/dp/B003IZELMM for exactly $ 99.00 no tax, free shipping depending on where you are or just the pen and touch for $79.99. It comes with Photoshop elements 7 which I use Photoshop 7 and 8 now. Except for a rough draft I do my toons almost completely with the electronic pen. They are good programs to start. With a little practice I am sure you will do fine. my cartoons are at  http://terryloutoons.com/
  

  I have a lot of fun with the table now and hope to have more fun with the pen and touch!

  Hey everyone, this group looked like the place for me to get started. I mainly do manga art for our Children's Church program. I have some samples ready and hopefully I will have the links available to you all.

  Hey everybody. I've recently committed the sin of over-committing myself, and now have too many projects to work on. I have a webcomic running called Outcasts that I really would like to keep up. I have a script written for the second chapter, which will be made of about 8 strips, but I don't have the time to draw it. So, I need an artist, specifically one that can do pencils and inks. Unfortunately, there's no money involved, since I'm not getting paid anything either, but I'll put your name on the artwork and send you copies of the colored and lettered artwork so you can add it to your portfolio. If you want more info, message me or email me at evangeli928@gmail.com. God bless!!
