Got a tablet for my birthday a bit ago. Feel like it hasn't necessarily improved the quality of my pixel art (since I'm still placing pixels by hand at the end), but has made the blocking process, and background mockups, way faster.
Also used the opportunity of learning new tablet thing to switch from GIMP to Krita, since GIMP is pretty clunky and more focused on photoshop anyway. Even with that, this only took me like one evening to to, so hopefully shit being faster will make me more motivated to actually art after being tired from selling my labor all day
Hell yeah. I just got a display tablet as well. I had to work OT to get it, so I understand having no energy at the end of the day. I resorted to drawing at work a few times just to act on the urge.
Yeah, I feel that. Got a lot of projects on the back-burner that I'd love to work on, but also I feel like I only have enough energy after work like one night a week to actually do stuff. Hard to not feel bad about feeling bad a lot of the time.
