Before There Were Tablet Computers, There Were Computer Tablets: Wacom Still Makes Them Cool!
For digital artists, the term “tablet computer” has an entirely different meaning than the term has for most of the rest of the population. Long before Apple released the iPad or Amazon flooded the market with e-readers that have come to be lumped in with tablet computers, there was a peripheral for computers called a tablet. Wacom still makes tablets, which remain an invaluable tool for digital artists. One of the best tablets on the market is the Wacom Intuos5 touch Large Pen Tablet.
The Wacom Intuos5 touch Large Pen Tablet provides users with over a hundred square inches of working area. The screen size is uncommonly large and affords digital artists the best possible opportunity for free-hand detailing. The Wacom Intuos5 touch Large Pen Tablet provides flexible controls both on the tablet and on the pen, which gives artists greater control when working with the tablet. If you are just starting to do digital artwork, switching between controls may be difficult, but Wacom makes it easy with large, clear controls on the tablet.
Compatible with both Mac computers and PCs, the Wacom Intuos5 touch Large Pen Tablet comes with everything you need to get started. The Intuos5 touch connects to your computer through a USB cable (which is included). That USB cable also powers the Large Pen Tablet, so it is important not to lose it. The Intuos5 touch, when powered up, is simple to use. Simply draw on the surface of the tablet using the Intuos5 Grip Pen and watch your progress on your computer’s monitor! Using the quick keys on the side of the Intuos5 touch, you may easily change the color with which you are coloring. As well, the controls on the side of the tablet allow you to adjust as the size or shape of the virtual stylus with which you are drawing.
The Intuos5 Grip Pen comes with both the pen stand and ten replacement nibs. Because you actually draw on the tablet screen with pen’s soft tip, the nibs wear and that ends up affecting the drawing you are producing. The Intuos5 touch Large Pen Tablet features five standard nibs, one flexible, one stroke and three hard felt nibs. The replacement nibs offer a versatility most tablets do not possess.
Using the Intuos5 touch Large Pen Tablet may require some practice with the pen and surface controls, but the basic usage is simple. You draw on the tablet surface and the image is created on your computer! As you advance as a digital artist, you will find the Intuos5 touch Large Pen Tablet affords you almost unlimited creative opportunities. You may use this tablet to alter digital photographs, draw freehand and easily alter existing digital artwork.
If you have ever wanted to see just how creative you can be on a computer, you do not need to change your computer; you only need to add the right peripheral. The Wacom Intuos5 touch Large Pen Tablet is a great tablet for digital artists, novice or advanced!
