Something like Cintiq but possibly less expensive?

Post by evilkinggumby »

Does anyone know or can suggest a similar digitizer like the Cintiq (link below)that is fairly large and reliable? I have a wacom or two that i use now with a stylus but I'd love to shift to direct drawing/painting and the cintiq is great but..damn pricey. I am saving to get one for my business now, just looking for alternatives and I have seen a few game dev's poking on here so I figured I'd ask.

Links or images are appreciated. Also any good or bad stories for what you use is helpful!

I think Joe has one of those although not as big. I actually bought a $70 Wacom to hopefully improve my drawing skills for sharing ideas with our artists, but it didn't help that much. hahah

I ended up getting a 19" Ubee to mess with for about $450. I just got it yesterday and haven't hooked it up to test but it seems solid and nice looking, if a little generic. I am hoping it works well, would be nice to get back in the swing of things.
