Jan 4, 2015 at 18:42 comment added joojaa Its not so much tilt as the fact that your monitor needs to be further away when not drawing, about 60% closer in fact. You also need space outside the monitor to hold your arms rested against. I know at least two industrial designers who had to stop working because they didn't think about ergonomics, and now they can only hold a pen/stylus in their hand for 15 minutes at time.

Jan 4, 2015 at 15:52 comment added joojaa Theres is a ergonomics aspect to this aswell, you need to be able to tilt your touchscreen and bring it close for prolonged use. The separate tablet is easier on your neck in this regard without good infrastructure.
