What kind of drawing tablet should I buy? (artist role) Are there any requirements? Is an apple ipad okay for example?

We highly recommend getting a drawing tablet that you can use on your PC. An iPad is fine, but you'll be struggling with sending files to your peers during projects or using it for 3D software a LOT.

That said, when buying a drawing tablet, you can't really go wrong with anything. I highly recommend Huion tablets as they are very reliable and work quite well (and Wacom is usually overpriced.) I have personally enjoyed the Huion Kamvas 13 display tablet, which only requires 1 USB-C connection for your PC to the display (if you have the energy requirements) which is super nice since it's always annoying to bring a whole mess of cables to class every time.

Hope this helps!
