In the attached manual only a simple illustration is drawn, honestly I was worried whether the setting can be done well at the beginning, but still it's so easy to set up with a PC so that it will be easy to use. Also polite for people who are not good at PChelpThere is prepared on the Internet, it is OK even if you do not worry because this is fairly substantial.

◆ I actually tried using Wacom Intuos
That's why Wacom Intuos is actually an illustratorHoshino RuruAnd Manga serialized in GIGAZINE "Princess and gamerI am in charge of drawingPepperI had him use it. In addition, Hirano Ruru's usual painting environment is "Cintiq 13 HD Creative Pen Display"×"CLIP STUDIO PAINT", Mr. Nao pepper"VAIO Z Canvas"×"Wacom MobileStudio Pro 16It is said to be "CLIP STUDIO PAINT EX".

Hoshino Ruru first felt that the workspace was difficult to understand. In the past board tab, the drawing area is dented and it seems that the boundary of the work space is clear even if you do not see the hand, but in Wacom Intuos this is represented by the points on the surface, so it is hard to understand the boundary, Initially I was running a pen often to extend beyond the workspace. However, it seems that the range of the workspace became to be grasped by the bodily sensation when using for a while.


Although Wacom Pen 4K of Wacom Intuos has 4096 levels of pen pressure sensing, it seems that there is no big difference compared to Propen (writing pressure sensing 2048 level) of Cintiq 13 HD Creative Pen Display which Hoshino Ruru normally uses about. In addition, the followability is good and the comfort of drawing is ◎. In addition, I usually use Wacom Pen 4K 's pen pressure sensing level higher than 4096 level. Pei Noi says that he uses Wacom Pro Pen 2, which has a pen pressure sensing level of 8192 level, also said that "No particular concern" Thing.


However, when wirelessly connected Wacom Intuos with "VAIO Z Canvas" which Mr. Io usually uses, when drawing a line fast with a pen, it is possible to draw a clean line, but when drawing a line slowly I felt a slight catch on. In addition, it became possible to draw a scala line when wired connection, so it seems to be good if you use wired when you are concerned.

Also, since Wacom Intuos has a rounded side, even if you draw your hand on the rim, even if you paint it, "Having a stressless point without having a trace in your hands is also good," says Hoshino Ru.


The surface of Wacom Intuos is smooth. Hoshino Ruru said, "Because the pen tablet of the house has pasted a film that makes it touch like paper, I felt the pen did not stop." However, it seems that I got accustomed to the surface which I was using smoothly for a while and became not particularly concerned. Mr. Sao also conscious of the paint on the surface, "People who like roughness with a rough surface are not good for those who like drawing comfort."

In the case of Wacom Intuos, the fact that the physical key is located at the top of the workspace is "I do not need to get in the way", Hoshino Ruru. If there are such physical keys next to the workspace, there are cases where malfunctioning occurs when placing hands when drawing a picture, which means that it will not be used soon as it gets in the way. Instead of a physical keyUse Joy-ConMr. Pepper says that Wacom MobileStudio Pro 16 does not use any physical keys at all, so it may be the correct answer to physical key placement that does not get in the way of drawing Wacom Intuos' picture.


Wacom Pen 4K (right) of Wacom Intuos,Wacom Cintiq Pro 24It's lighter and thinner than Wacom Pro Pen 2. Both Mr. Horinaru and Mr. Naoko mentioned the thinness because we were using two at the same time. In addition, Wacom Pen 4K has low cushioning property of the grip part, it is commented that "you can have beans for a long time", it seems good to roll around something with cushioning when using. However, Wacom Pen 4K has a higher position of the button at hand than Wacom Pro Pen 2, "It is unlikely that you will accidentally push the button while using the pen."


Mr. Ichiba used his own VAIO Z Canvas and Wacom Intuos to connect, but Wacom Intuos' Bluetooth was not detected and it was impossible to reinstall the dedicated driver. Because of this, "The driver is unstable but unstable, but the hard itself is excellent as it is making pen tablet for many years" as well. Although I actually used it, the VAIO Z Canvas I usually use also has a stylus pen dedicated to it, but that is "quite better than that". Also, as the entry model was too good enough, the pen pressure sensation was also higher, and it jumped out to the compliment word "perfect for the introduction of a digital picture".


So, you can see how the Hoshino Riru has been drawn using "Wacom Intuos" in the following movie.
