wacom tablet #1

Hi

I recently bought this book and now I want to buy a Wacom tablet (without a screen).

Is the following one compatible with Blender?

Or is a tablet without a screen not really usefull for Blender? I want to use it for grease pencile and for model sculpting. Can I do this with this specific tablet?

Hello, yes that tablet will be compatible. Using a tablet with a built-in screen can be helpful, but personally I do all of my sculpting on a tablet that doesn't have a screen. All of the examples in this book were made on a similar Wacom tablet to the one you linked above.

Can you tell me what Wacom model you have exactly?

Xury46 commented 1 year ago

I have the "Wacom Intuos Pro medium", I also bought the "Wacom Texture Sheet medium standard" because the paper style texture that originally came with the tablet was so rough that it was grinding away the nibs on my stylus.

This made the total cost of the tablet a little over $400 USD. You're probably better off buying the "One By Wacom" because it's only about $100 USD, and it looks like it's just as good.
