All a tablet does is give you better pen control. If you're using Photoshop, master the pen tool, since it'll basically save you eons of frustration until you can get a proper tablet. Stick to the take pictures/scan and then pen-tool ink it. It'll take a lot of trial and error, but once you get it, it'll come in handy quite often I assure you.
I recommend, if you're strapped for money, grabbing a monoprice tablet (only if you use windows) or a Wacom Bamboo Fun since theyre both very affordable and will last you a long, long time.
