I've been sick with a cold but I also got accepted to one of the early classes for the next semester. Stoked to be taking this class because it's 1. on language in maths and scientific education and 2. already counts for my master's degree.
I spent this week reading tons and decluttering and I learnt some knitting and found some lovely yt channels (namely AdventureDenali) and spent lots of time with Cheyenne Barton as well, journalled, spent an awful amount of money on bits and bobs, painted, cleaned and cooked well for myself.
Days went by quickly but, apart from a congested nose and heavy coughs, I felt more and more relaxed as the week went on.
the lovely folks over @ Huion kindly sent me a Kamvas 12 to try !! ♡ a quick review:
🖥 Huion Kamvas 12 is a beginner friendly screen tablet with full HD 12″ display, compatible with windows, mac, linux and android phones. it is not a standalone portable tablet, it will need to be hooked up to a computer with a HDMI port!
🖼 i’ve been using this screen tablet for a month now and i’m really happy with it! this is huion’s smallest model, making it easy to carry and ideal for my small desk. it is a compact, lightweight but high quality screen tablet.
⚙️ set up is straightforward. i had some trouble figuring out pen calibration during set up bc there was some lag/offset, but after some fiddling around it works like a charm and i don’t experience any major lag when doing a stroke - i've tested this both in SAI and CSP.
🎨 the screen resolution is impressive for its size & the colors are popping on this one. its kinda like your drawing on paper bc the screen is semi-matte. it even got customizable hotkeys which i love + u can turn off the screen and use it like a regular drawing tablet no problem
🖊 the pen is battery-free and charges automatically, so if you’re like me and get annoyed by the pen running out while you’re working, this is ideal! it comes with pen holder + extra nibs, a drawing glove, and an optional adjustable stand, making it more ergonomic
tl;dr: i’m impressed! if you think larger screen tablets are a bit intimidating, or you’re used to non-display tablets and are looking to transition to screen displays - this is a great and affordable fit! 💞
i'm so happy to see more affordable options out there so more people can jump in and start drawing digitally. i can highly recommend huion tablets!! if you are interested, you can find more info here! ✨
