Well, I was digging through my closed and uncovered the my virgin unused graphics tablet. I blew the dust off of her and plugged her in to the PC and installed the drivers. So I thought, what program would be good for doing anime style art? I have Photoshop, Painter 11, Fireworks, Illustrator, and of course, the glorious MS Paint.

None really seem to do that great of a job for sketching and doing the anime style art work, since [usually] anime is more vector-esque, rather than finely blended shades of colors. (Yes, I know some artists like Ishikei and Tony use the former, but what I want to start with is something more 'cartoony')

So any suggestions? What do you artists out there prefer? I greatly appreciate all input!

Thanks! :]
