I am on the verge of buying A) the 12" iPad and working through the learning curve or B) buying a Cintiq 13HD and leasing the Adobe software and working through that curve.
The most advanced experience I have is with Photoshop. I am able to crop a photo of lets say a side plate and then resize it and print it out. Then draw on that printout then take a photo of it then resize smaller and make a transfer as a guide to cut my design.

I "FEEL" learning to use one of these platforms will help in my design work....

Any thoughts or advise is always appreciated.

Donny ive owned both ipad pro large version hands down.

I like the simplicity of it, not really much of a learning curve, and there's plenty of online help either from this forum or youtube.

iPad gets my vote, but if you want to do photo editing in Photoshop or vector in Adobe Illustrator, then the Cintiq might be a better choice. If you want to draw, then the iPad is very hard to beat.
