I thought that worked fine, but still missed working on an actual animation desk, until one day I purchased a <a title=\"Wacom Cintiq\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wacom.com\/en-us\/products\/pen-displays\/wacom-cintiq-pro-overview\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wacom Cintiq<\/a> and suddenly I felt like I was back to working how I used to.

I absolutely love it.\n\nHayk is also a fan of <a title=\"Toon Boom Harmony\" href=\"https:\/\/www.toonboom.com\/products\/harmony\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Toon Boom Harmony<\/a>. \"I used to love the old Flash (now called Abode Animate) vector brush for drawing\/animating, but now the drawing tools in <a title=\"Toon Boom Harmony\" href=\"https:\/\/www.toonboom.com\/products\/harmony\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Harmony<\/a> put it to shame. While Animate is still great for cutout symbol style animation,\u00a0 for hand-drawn animation I prefer Harmony.
