    Hello I need your help! I have been drawing for a while but on regular paper and now I want to move over to digital drawing since there are so many things you can create that is not manageable otherwise and I wonder which tablet would be best for me? I mainly want to draw humans and mytical creatures but also manga in naruto, one piece style, but also general things like objects.
    I hear quite a few people recommend the cheap XP-Pen DECO 03 graphics Tablet for this "style" but I dont know if you think another tablet version is better.
    I am going to buy a drawing program like Paint tool sai or opencanvas for this to only got Gimp for now.
    Last thank you for your time I really appreciate it .

    XP-Pen is my favorite Wacom alternative brand as they pump out products that even I believe can go neck to neck with some Wacom products. For beginners, I highly recommend any Wacom Intuos series tablet (I started with an Intuos pro). But first, what's your budget?

    I personally use the Wacom Intuos Pro. I like it, but it is a bit pricey if you're not sure you're gonna use it all that much. Definitely try before you buy- I had the luck of testing out a friends.
    Really though, you wanna get something with a decent pressure sensitivity and a good size for your available space on your desk. Trust me- holding your tablet on your lap for a while will kill your wrist.
    Huion makes some good tablets as well (arguably better than Wacom) and have a lower price.
    Do your research and figure out what your budget is and how much space you want this thing to take up. Some sites are sneaky and have the actual drawing surface as the size listed... conveniently hiding the rest of the tablet size among the details -_-

    Also- FireAlpaca is a free drawing program very similar to Paint Tool Sai. Several artists I know create amazing pieces in it (FireAlpaca that is)- price isn't everything. If you're really gunning for Paint Tool Sai, test out FireAlpaca before you spend money.
    Krita is also a free software, though it's a little more "professional" and a less-than-intuitive interface.

    I would suggest Wacom but the chepa ones are still pricy.

    Either a Wacom Bamboo (dont use it but its good enough), or a Huion. Huion is cheap and still good quality.

    I personally have been using the same Wacom Intues for like 4-5 years.
