This means Photoshop can tell the difference between a light sketched line and a heavy-handed mark. Graphics tablets are also pressure-sensitive and, sometimes, they’re tilt-sensitive, too. While being able to draw and trace more accurately is nice, it’s only half the story. If you’ve ever tried to sign your name using a trackpad or mouse instead of a pen, you’ve experienced the difference. You can draw neat circles, accurately trace the outline of a model you want to cut out of the background, and generally just work as you would if you were using a pen and paper. With a graphics tablet, it’s significantly easier to work with natural, flowing lines. The Wacom stickman is significantly better looking and took us about a quarter of the time it took to draw the other one. In the image above, we quickly sketched two stickmen using a Mac’s trackpad (left) and a Wacom tablet (right). The big advantage of a graphics tablet over a mouse, or, even worse, a trackpad, is how much control you have.
High-quality entry models, like the One by Wacom (which is different from the Wacom One), start at around $60.
