Hey guys, I want to buy a graphics tablet so I can do digital art and I need advice on what to buy. I was thinking of buying one of those WACOM Intuos tablets for $100 but I need your opinions. Is the small size too small to do well?

You know, a lot of people are using graphics tablets. I have been using my galaxy tab s2 with decent results. Medibang paint is on the play store as well as infinite painter. So my point is that If you have an android tablet or iPad, start there.
I don't have an android tablet and my Intuos is already here ^^
buy cheapest wacom tablet, it will do well for many years and if you manage to reach skill level sufficient enough to get a job for you, company will buy you any gear you like or if they don't you can spend your first salary for whatever gear you want . For beginners and intermediate artists only real difference between 100$ tablet and 2000$ work station is the price tag.
I see, thanks for the tip, I'll get a small one then. By the way, which one should I get? Art, Draw, Comic? I don't know which is more suited for me.
tablets are identical, it's just the software that comes as a gift is different, if you already have photoshop or any other then you can just buy draw, I believe this one is bit cheaper ??, other comes with corel paint or manga studio, I personally don't work with anything else than photoshop for a while, used to draw in manga studio, it's okey software, but photoshop is more robust, especially on post processing tools.
Thank you for the help. And yes, Intuos Draw is cheaper.
you're welcome ^^, when you get used in working digitally, don't forget to post some drawings here :)
If you have the money to invest more, you can go for the Intuos series (the CTH, CTL series not the expensive PTH one) and then pick the M size. But if you're short on money the S size is totally okay for starters or the more cheaper ONE series. I used a Wacom Volito for 10 years which was like ... even smaller than the regular S size now is haha.
I personally would recommend the M size though tbh. Also you can look around ebay for a used Wacom too and if you enjoy digital art you could buy a better/bigger one later :)
Well if the small size is enough for starters then I am fine with it, I was only afraid that the size would be uncomfortable or a bit difficult to use. I don't really have the money for a better one, my budget is $100. And yeah, in the future when I can afford it I'll buy a better one anyway.
