Recommended it

Excellent product

It's quite big and pages are really thick.. Recommended one...loved it

I still didn’t use it but this paper is known that they are great. I like this size its not big not small.

Ti promette che puoi usare acquarelli,acrilici, gouache, penna e matite e mantiene la sua promessa alla grande! L'ho testato con lavori abbastanza impegnativi così da vederne quanto si può spingere e sono rimasta sorpresa, la qualità è strabiliante, l'aspetto del foglio non molto spesso ti inganna perchè quando ho usato gli acquarelli ha mantenuto benissimo l'acqua, non si è mai rovinato mentre dipingevo, insomma fantastico. L'ho comprerò di nuovo subito appena finisco questo che ho preso, ve lo consiglio!!

I thought I wasn't too found of this paper since I remember buying a much larger pad of it and returning it, but I'm very happy to have this in a smaller size. This isn't as thick as the Strathmore series even though they say they are the same, this is obviously thinner. But it seems to be a decent mixed media paper, and at the right price! There is a very slight tooth to this paper, but is still relatively smooth. Enough to use colored pencil in mixed media, but you might want more tooth for larger projects that require more tooth. Watercolor goes down really well on these, not soaking into the paper, but spreading evenly. The paper does bend a bit with the water, but not too badly. Nothing a little weight on it couldn't mend out. Pen and ink go down great on these, again the smoothness carries the ink far. The thickness of this paper holds everything I've put on it including oil pastels, and watercolors. I'm very confident it would hold acrylics with ease. I think this is actually a really decent mixed media paper, it is the closest thing I have found to being able to hold that name.

Résiste bien à l'eau et aux superpositions. Format pratique.

I bought this after seeing it on a a blog that I follow. I originally wanted a different size but this was the only one available so I bought it. I am glad I have this size now as it is easy to transport with me and is slightly smaller than a regular A4. The exact size is 17.8cm x 25.4cm and the pages are 160g. There are 60 sheets in total. The pages are perforated and easy to remove from the book. I have mainly used pencil in the book but you can use acrylic, watercolours, pen and pencils. The spiral bound is tough and the book has firm cardboard covers that will protect the pages. Originally I did think it was a bit expensive but it is worth it as I can't compare it to anything else that is similar and a very good quality product. I highly recommend it. I am keeping it as a journal of all the "attempts" I am making at trying to improve my drawing skills. I can see the more I use this book and practice, the better I am becoming. You can also colour in the pages with different pens but alcohol based pens will bleed through this paper.

Ich habe dieses Skizzenbuch jetzt schon drei Mal gekauft und es ist wirklich mein Go-to Block. Ich kann von farb swatches jeglicher Art über Skizzen bis zu fertigen Bildern alles darin anfertigen ohne übermäßiges Durchbluten (bei copic Markern) oder dem Hauch einer Welle bei nass in nass Aquarell. Die Spiralbindung war am Anfang ein Graus jedenfalls in meinem Kopf. Denn jetzt liebe ich, dass man die Seiten komplett umklappen kann. Ich habe vorher die Leuchtturm 1917 Skizzenbücher benutzt und das Papier hatte gefühlt jedes mal eine andere Qualität. Das ist hier nicht der Fall. Ich brauche ca 2-3 Monate um ein Buch zu füllen und benutze beide Seiten jedes Blattes weil eben nichts durchblutet. Das Cover ist harte Pappe was ebenfalls ein Bonus ist. Der einzige Nachteil ist, dass ich jedes Mal wenn ich ein neues bestelle, mindestens 2€ mehr zahle als beim letzten Mal. Das erste kostete nur 12€ und mittlerweile sind es 17+€ Ich werde es trotzdem weiter kaufen und empfehlen da es meiner Meinung nach das beste mixed media Papier ist das ein Künstler sich wünschen kann. Achso und wenn man viel mit Bleistift malt sollte man entweder Papier zwischen die Seiten legen oder fixierspray benutzen da es durch die Ringbindung zu flexiblen Blättern kommt die sich aneinander reiben.... Ist aber nicht weiter schlimm und sieht auch ganz hochwertig aus wenn man transparentpapier nimmt.
