Holy shit... That's all I have to say. My Cintiq has arrived and this thing is bigger than I thought it would be. I had to clear some desk space to fit this bad boy in my studio. At last minute I thought to myself, I should take out my camera and make a quick little animation of the box opening and the Cintiq popping out. But as you can tell by the short vid I made, I just wanted to open the thing up and play with it.



I have to admit that drawing on this will take a little less time to get use to than the Intuos tablets. It only took a night really. After calibrating the pen and the screen to my liking, I just took off and made a this quickie in Photoshop.

3 hours of noodling around.

This is the closest thing that comes to drawing on paper. I removed the pen nib that is supplied with it and popped in the #2 pencil nib and it blew my mind. A non-slippery surface to draw on put my mind at ease.

I don't have the worlds best camera as of yet so i apologize for the poor picture quality. But here it is in all its glory sitting pretty at my Creation Station.

Well today couldn't be any better. I can actually feel my physical body transmuting itself into an self perpetuating artistic machine. Why is this you ask? Well i just ordered my brand spanking new Cintiq 21UX. It should reach my doorstep 3 days from this post so I'll post back here as soon as that bad bitchum arrives at my doorstep. But in the meantime, I'll have to just stare at this picture of one.


Sweet nectar!
