I haven't drawn in years outside of mechanical or design sketches. I really haven't done much in the way of artist drawing since my really good set of colored pencils were disappeared long ago.

Paper has historically been my canvas, whether it's combined with pencil(even the colored variety) or quill and inks. I have never used a digital drawing pad before and really have no idea about quality, specs or even interfaces of outside of product adverts and reviews.

Canvas size with scanner size with scanner cost with physical media VS learning curve with compute with drawing pad.

Help! Those that have use drawing pads, what's your experience with?

Thanks for the info on your experiences with. I may give a dedicated drawing pad a go once I get a decent workstation setup. For the time being I'm giving an iPad and pencil a go. So far I'm rather pleased but need to figure out a few more things to make it work how I want.

I gave up on Photoshop years ago. I'm not a professional so gimp has been good enough for anything that I need to do on a workstation.
