Advice: JUST STICK WITH YOUR INTUOS and your desktop PC! Wait a few years and see, if Wacom ever decided to put a respectable graphics card into their Cintiq or make it replaceable. Then you may consider spending insane amounts of money on one of those things. But right now...just don't!
I've got the most expensive cintiq companion (512) and it's kind of rubbish. Intel HD 4000 is in there, which feels like the cheapest possible mobile card and is dog slow for openGL. The handling of the Cintiq doesn't motivate me to even try to get really used to it, while I still did and couldn't thus far. The technology or organization of it is still immature, having idiotic things happening such as a changed resolution (so you can read something on the display) won't stay true after shutdown. When you restart it, the display is set to full resolution, but the content is on the small resolution you picked earlier, making it impossible to type anything in there or select anything. If you then do not have a keyboard to use, you'd be totally screwed, hahaha... it's ridiculous. But all that is nothing compared to the lousy gfx card issue and the massive price of it.
Intuos all the way!!!
AH... BEAUTIFUL PICTURE, by the way...or while I'm yelling, haha! ...it's very classic, in a way, almost like an 80's airbrush poster of sorts for some reason, but really pretty! Well done!
AND I really love that you put those WIP stages down there. It's a fantastic habit that I hope you'll keep!
