how hard are graphics tablets without screens to use for a complete begginer?
this is just for drawing/black and white art, although i dont think colour/greyscale matters other than in real life art. my drawing level is at roughly davinci's to give you a rough idea of my ability, i have just never drawn on a graphic tablet before (with or without a screen)
if it would help this is the graphic tablet im thinking of getting.

I used that exact tablet a few weeks ago at a friends house. I loved it. You'll like it too Mr. DaVinci. :p Have you found any good prices on it?

i've found it for £88.44 here, but thats for the UK.

how does it feel compared to drawing on paper since you technically cant see what you drawing?

you see what you are drawing on screen.. i'd guess it takes not more than a few hours to really get used to it

I used those in arc class before, they're really good once you get used to them, I think they're better than tablets with screens because the surface feels more realistic to paper
