Review: Best quality sketchbook I've ever used. I've tried countless sketchbooks and Moleskine has been my favourite, I'm on my third one so far. It's perfect for pencil, pen, acrylic, watercolour, gouache. Be careful with wetter materials though as they may seep through the paper, but I've not had any major issues with this and can just stick something over the back of the page if it did bleed through. Well worth the investment though if you're looking for a good quality sketchbook. Review: Estas libretas siempre son un acierto.
