Wacom

So I bought a new graphics tablet, as I explained last week, and have quickly sketched my first digital comic. I would warn you that it’s been 15 years since I’ve drawn anything, and this is the first time I’ve ever used a graphics tablet. So now that you’re forewarned, please feel free to check out the comic here.

First effort, so please go easy on me.

If you’ve ever considered making your own comics, one good way to get started is to get yourself a graphics tablet. Along with lots of other marked-down after-Christmas items, Amazon.com has also reduced prices on computer art peripherals, including tablets.

I just bought the Wacom Bamboo Fun Medium Tablet for significantly less than its normal price; I looked at several online retailers and wasn’t able to find it cheaper anywhere. So if you’re interested in making your own illustrations, by all means check out Amazon.com to see if any graphics tablets are within your budget.

And let me know if you produce work you’d like to show off on Growth Comics!
