“But I had never drawn on a tablet before. I've been doing pencil and paper and film for almost 20 years. I wanted to try something different.

“I have friends and illustrators who can't stand drawing on the Cintiq. [A graphic pad tablet used by digital animators] There's a certain tension and friction when you draw on paper that they miss. The tablet is very slick. It's like drawing on glass. But that didn't bother me at all.” UsedCertainMissingPaperDrawsGlassesDrawingBotherTensionDigitalGraphicPadsFrictionTabletsSlickAnimatorIllustrators Author:Don Hertzfeldt
