I use a Wacom Intous3 for most of my applications. and im probably going to use a use wacom 4 large and replace the action area with a LCD screen so i have a small portable wacom "cintiq" to lug around with me.

Its easy to stop doing hand art when all of these tools are available to you, which is why my sketchbook has to be in my visible range so i don't forget to practice.

I haven't done anything art with my ipad3 yet, I might stop by fry's later and pick up a stylus.

Thanks. I find that my finger is the best stylus for the ipad, but to each their own. My friend uses the non HD cintiq and has really recommended it.

Have any of you one a schoolism.com course?
