Pen/Tablets.

[Jclark333]

I was wondering where I could get a decent pen/tablet. I've been using photoshop for awhile now and want to get into doing some realistic things with it. Anyone have any suggestions? That aren't too high in price?

I suggest starting small.. Bamboo tablets.. the 5x4" are not bad and relatively cheap. See if you dig it..

Geeks.com has a digipro tablet.. 6x8" on sale for about forty bones. The only draw back is the pen requires a battery.

8" x 6" DigiPro WP8060 USB Graphics Tablet w/Cordless Pen (Black) (http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=BLK-WP8060&cpc=SCH)

Wacoms are probably the best, and as soon as I can get enough cash I am going to toss out the old one and get something bigger. THis is what I have now (http://www.amazon.com/Bamboo-Small-Pen-Tablet-Only/dp/B000V9T2JA/ref=pd_cp_e_1)

You should also look through the Wacom folder in this very forum. It is dedicated to this topic and related tablet topics:

Tablets can have a difficult learning curve, but stick with it!
