| I think the hand blocking issue can and will be alleviated buy GUI advancements in the future. All of our desktop UI's are built around using a mouse but as we get more touch and tactile use I see these conventions evolving and making things better for the Cintiq style use. I do think that drawing on the screen could be the standard for any artist. I believe things come full circle and we would all be sitting at drafting tables if we were designing/sketching/creating 30 years ago. I don't have a Cintiq yet, but it's in the plans.

i have always felt the same way, especially for AE use, in my limitied time trying the cintiq
on the other hand, before an illustrator friend of mine competed in the cut & paste competition he picked up a cintiq to practice on at home. he was also frustrated in the same way that your hand blocks the screen. however, after using one for a week or so he says that goes away and now swears by them.
I can see the benefit for illustration and painting but im still not sure it would make typical AE use any better. On Mon, Oct 8, 2012 at 4:42 AM, Angie-Taylor <angie-taylor@ntlworld.com> wrote:
I tried the Cintiq but funnily enough I found it frustrating that my pen and hand got in the way of my drawing after being used to using an intuous. Funny as it never bothered me when drawing on paper but it really bothered me with the screen. Personally I didn't think the benefits of drawing directly on the screen were worth the extra investment. The one thing I did like was being able to rotate it on the stand and have it auto-adjust - sweet! :-)
