tips and resources for beginners
Q: What tablet should I get if I want to get into digital art?
A: Wacom tablets are always great and are an industry standard, they also last an incredibly long time but their price reflects that, if you are looking for something more budget-friendly but also really good quality I would recommend XP-Pen tablets and Huion tablets.
​
Q: How do you find your art style and stay consistent?
A: Experiment, a lot, try all types of styles and go out of your comfort zone as much as possible. learn the basics and bend them to your liking. Practicing different types of coloring, line art and tone will not only help your skill but will help you decide what style and technique feels more natural to you. Don't be afraid to not have a consistent art style, art is a journey and your art will reflect that.
