    What about a normal wacom?

    I haven't used a cintiq, but i have a surface-type tablet with windows and the wacom digitizer integrated. It's great for what it is, and it's definitely suitable for sketching, but for more detailed/finished artwork it doesn't really cut it. It's small and you have to work really close.

    I also have a large wacom with 2x 22" monitors at my desk, and I am soooooo much more efficient and effective with that set up compared to the little tablet. It might be similar on a cintiq, but I kind of think that the ability to be back from the screen is a benefit. You don't get the tunnel vision like you do when you're working up close.

    Just something to think about.
