I am currently considering buying an iPad to create my sketches into digital art. What do people recommend?

iPadOS

Just for clarity - all Adobe CC apps are not available for the iPad. As an example Photoshop, Lightroom and Illustrator have iPad versions, although they do not have all the functionality of the desktop versions. Fresco was developed for that environment. However InDesign, After Effects and Premiere Pro are not available on the iPad.

It therefore really depends which applications you intend to use in your process.

Yes, that really needs stressing. The best iPad for all the Adobe apps is a MacBook Pro!

The iPad Pro / M4 chip / 512GB is a good place to start. Add-on from there in terms of glass, stylus, data etc. as it makes the most sense for your workflow.
