Here is another drawing done with my Wacom tablet. This time I used Photoshop and I have to admit that the results are better than when using Autodesk's sketchbook. The tools in Photoshop do need to be set up properly though.

Hi, I've just received my new Wacom tablet, woo hoo.
It's an amazing bit of kit, and far more natural to use
than I had imagined. Everything from the packaging to
the device itself is very well designed. Installation was
a breeze, Including installing the software. This tablet
works very well with Photoshop. Although setting up
photoshop to work with the pressure sensitivity when
using brushes, took an extra five mins. Not too difficult
though. I got a software download of Autodesk's sketchbook
express from the Wacom site when registering the product,
and this is a very good package. You have to wonder if there
is any room in the market for a painting program outside
of Photoshop, but this program really impressed me. the
tools are based around the media used in traditional artwork,
and therefore create work that looks like traditional
I'm open minded and interested in most things.
Other people describe me as a deep thinker, although this could be a nice way off saying that I don't move around much and I'm sometimes a bit on the quiet side!
People look up to me, but at 6'6", they usually have to :-p !
So here's my blog. Watch this space for new and interesting ideas that I come across and want to share and also the occasional rant...
All the best,
Rik
