Ok so I need to rekit my entire studio, due to a recent theft of all ma art stuffs. Ya, I mean all!
I am doing my research, but thought it would be a bit of fun for all to crowdsource for ideas for studio configuration.
So please post what you would get for anything up to 5000 New Zealand dollars. (About 4000US). Just use your own ideal setup. Also don't include major software like Photoshop, because I use opensource stuff for now anyway.
I haven't even started looking properly but here is one idea:
Wacom Companion 512GB - 2200
Dell Ultrasharp 27 inch - 700
Peripherals, kb, mouse etc - 150
Adjustable Monitor mount - 100
NAS 1TB Raid device for redundant auto backups - 200
Printer/scanner - again no clue. Probably something semi decent would be nice. 400
Dropbox Pro account 100/year
Physical monitor calibration device - ?? 200 (optional) Or backup tablet. Bamboo or the like - 200
That doesn't hit the ceiling either, but I'm sure I could think of some things. Maybe some nice trad materials
Note my heavy tendency towards multiple redundant backup systems :p
Ok go people....what would YOU do??
