Excellent stuff. I have the new 12 inch cintiq at work, and I'm very happy with it. Also have an old graphire I never really got used to. But I need a tablet at home as well, and the screen ones are a bit heavy on the wallet. So your advice was really great, thanks. Hi Sergio,

Ah!! cool, Im going to Berlin tomorrow and I plain to test the Cintiq 21 and 12 inches. My worry about the 12" was that maybe its too small, what do you think? its confortable and big enough to draw? What about the color accuracy? If its big enough I think the 12" is great, much more portable and affordable. Please share your thoughts. Cheers. Sergio PS: you have some nice designs :) Hello Jesper, thanks a lot.

But there's no doubt I'd like to have more screen real estate. The 12 inch gets the job done and I'm not sure that the 21 is so much better to justify the price difference. What I do is, have a total view of what I'm working on open on my main screen, and then work with the details in a zoomed view on the cintiq. Not sure about color accuracy. I'm so used to not relying on what a monitor shows me, that I "use the force" (and the values) a lot when working with color. So I haven't put much thought to it. Also only had it for like a month, so the main focus have been on how it feels to work with. If you make any discoveries regarding colors etc. please post it.

Though for the 21" I will need a big desktop (monitor + cintiq + keyboard)... its another thing I want to test, how confortable is it. Im in Berlin right now, I will try to test both and hopefully I will make a choice. Thanks for sharing your experience Jesper.

I mainly do graffiti art but I wanted to be able to apply that to graphic design and make a side biz out of it. I was reading some reviews of the "Intuos3 4x6 Wide" tablet and read one that said it was not that good for lefties. I am left handed. What are your thoughts on that? Thanks for your time and knowledge! Toki Hello,

I dont see any problem with lefties... really I dont see any difference. I hope it helps. Hello Toki, I would buy the smaller one because its much more confortable and cheaper.
