There are cheaper setups if you shop around. The idea is kinda nice but it's more of a gimmic and it really isn't necessary.

The pencil test machine looks cool, But I don't see any real reason for paying that much for a lightbox that doesn't even swivel like a regular animation disc. I have a 7x11" light box worth $70 and my own pegbar worth $6, and it works just fine. It's not perfect, but it works.

"Signatures are so lame; everybody always chooses some babble from a video game or an anime that makes no sense in any context whatsoever to represent themselves. Only an idiot would make post with a signature. ....Oh wait a second..."

it looks cool, but it's really pricey. might be good for schools to buy in bulk cuz they could get a discount. but for a regular person it's not really worth it. the only reason i'd get it is cuz i could import my pencil tests into photoshop or illustrator and do all the ink and paint there. but it's easier to just draw into a program like toon boom studio.

That's a fucking awesome looking system.

^{S . .} . _. .

I do a quite a bit of traveling, so i would consider this for when I want to visit my boyfriend two states away and work while he's gone. I would sometimes bring my Disc and large light box which I'd have to wrap up in a couple towels and hope the guys throwing it into the bus doesn't shatter the glass x.x; but that's only if I HAVE TO and I have a lot of work. So even though it's pricey, if you travel a bit (and god forbid you want to work in the school library because the studio can only hold so many kids) i think it would be ideal. But I agree, it's too pricy. My Tablet PC starts at $1500 (I got it for $1998), my cam stand (with 45degree lights) $30 and my awesome camcorder bout $200. ($15 for the ilink/ilink cable i think) and my standing light box about $70. Minus the laptop, that's $315. I'm guessing these people are not from the US to be asking such prices.

So, with that I say, if you have to get it just get the 12 field TYOS. The other ones aren't worth it unless you work on 10 field.

I wish I knew about this before my last year in school and cheaper lol... I totally think this would be good for the animator on the go like myself lol

Now if only i can find a scanner feeder that takes animation paper.
