Good book

These sketchbooks are perfect for coured pencil artwork. I have attached some imgaes of some drawings i've done. This book holds pencil very well and makes your drawing stand out. The paper is smooth and a great thickness too, even if you press hard the paper wont tear. If you do lots of coloured pencil drawings then these sketchbooks are a must. I love them and will continue to purchase them.

There’s no doubting the build quality and sturdiness of this little sketchbook (softback 400 toned) but the binding is so tight one wonders how it can be used practically, as it needs to be held open at all times. The cover is made from a rubber type material from what I can gather, and feels very nice to the touch. Paper quality is excellent - skin-toned in colour and takes pencil very nicely.

This sketchbook is amazing, the paper is the perfect shade so white shows up, but colours aren't distorted. The paper is very smooth and easy to put pencil on! It's a4 so it's nice and big. The paper is quite thick so if you are looking to trace onto it I would definitely buy some tracing paper!

Very good,

I could never draw anything with white, until I found this paper. I can draw the sea, with white foam, white mane, etc. I really love drawing with this paper. I'm just an amateur, teaching myself, but find this paper great.

This paper can take a lot of layers. I love it
