I think this might be the first useful thread I've ever seen in this forum... Congratz to navitsu

It's very interesting to see a variety of grips, and also the way you classified them was clever.

Cool thread.
rrtyui grip with full area fullscreen works fine for me but it gets srsly tiring esp when doing cross screen jumps

Wow nice informative thread
I'm currently using calligraphy grip 2 with the thumb going over the pen ayy
This is my usual pen grip when I'm holding a normal pen and writing
But regarding the different types of pengrips, I do agree that pencil grips allow for more freedom around the tablet, but it's probably more suited for those using large, smooth tablets like Wacom. For small tablets like the Huion, having a small area with calligraphy grip would be more suitable as you literally hit the edge easily if you use pencil grip with a large area. And since Huion tablets tend to have high friction (or my palms are just sticky), you just stick one side of your hand to the tablet and move your pen with your fingers.

Maybe it's just my personal preference.

Mine seems to be the medium pencil. Though sometimes I'm trying to grip it higher or even trying calligraphy two, but still medium pencil is the most related to me.
Pituophis
Wow. something that can be useful! My grip is exactly like Calligraphy two, but I use full area on H420. I've tried about half of the grips here and what I use now feels the most accurate for me. It kills my thumb though. The tip of my thumb sometimes gets bruised and the pain can sometimes make playing difficult.

This post... Beautiful. Thanks so much. I couldn't find a good hold. It would either be too loose or hurt a bunch. Now i use pencil grip medium on a H420 and it's perfect. Thanks navitsu

I've been planning to use a tablet for awhile now. This really helps,thanks! :)
kiyoemon
well done navitsu! now we have a terminology, i guess.
Yuudachi-kun
Apparently I'm calligraphy 2 and not pencil medium. Weird.

Except my middle finger is behind the pen, not on it.

Can someone help me identify what my grip would be classified?
Also anyone else that uses something similar?

Ah, now that I see it, my grip actually started there and I just modified it a slight amount. Thanks

Im surprised you did not include _Index's pen grip. He described it to me once as he holds it between his index and middle finger pointing straight down with his thumb supporting it IIRC.
