Welcome to the wonderful world of tablets. :) People seem to think they're better before they use them, and they are, but you also realize how inprecise your hand is without all the inertia of the mouse.

yeah, i still use the mouse for cleaning up small areas :')

There is less inertia of a mouse. Much less. 'Lest ye be talking about the cursor, which is based off hand movements, of which there is still limited inertia, compared with the ability to sweep around with a tablet.

Arisuki, your best bet is to keep at it, and draw, draw, draw. Eventually, you will get the hang of it, and then you will be able to used it. There sure at a lot of pessimists around here.

Arisuki, how close is the tablet to your monitor? If you brace your hand and hold the pen in one spot and it still wobbles, interference from your monitor could be screwing you up. Otherwise it's just the tablet magnifying your hand shaking.

I agree with ky. Imagine my surprise when I first tried out my tablet and discovered it was impossible to work with. A bit of a culture shock, if you will. But I could never face the shame of going to my parents and asking them to return it after them paying 200 dollars for it and going through all my begging. ... So long story short, I drew with it for a while, and I got used to it. You will too.
