I got my Cintiq 21UX today, and obviously I had to try it out right away.

I got the thing all set up and grabbed one of the sketches from my journal, and started messing around.

I did that in less than ten minutes. It works like a dream. Everything just feels so natural and fluid. Rather than trying to match what I’m doing on a tablet with what I’m seeing on the screen, I just draw right on the screen.

It’s a hefty piece of machinery, and pretty expensive, but worth every last penny if you’re into digital artwork.
