La calidad del papel es incríble, a pesar de que no es de un alto gramaje, la absorción del agua es muuuy buena, no se traspasan los colores, el papel con la humedad de las aguadas levemente se arruga pero es normal en papel con un gramaje menor a los 300, pero no impide que sigas trabajando. Lo recomiendo para practicar, sin duda es un MUST en tu colección de sketchbooks.Adquiriré otro por que es mi nuevo favorito.

Fine line ink is a joy to draw on the paper of this journal. So smooth and professional looking. And it takes water colour nicely too...I wouldn't recommend very wet techniques. For wet on dry water painting, it doesn't buckle more than the heavy weight watercolour papers. The first page of the journal is for attaching the journal to the front cover. It's not for using for watercolour painting. If you use that first page, expect terrible performance and horrible buckling. Don't make the mistake that I did and use that first page for water colour painting.

I was looking for a sturdy sketchbook that would withstand acrylic paint and other media. This product works well with a variety of media as it should, and pages can be used double-sided without colour or paint seeping through. I tested some acrylic paint in several layers, and the paper holds its integrity well with minor "rippling" at the paper edges. Although, I have not tested this with watercolour yet, so I can't say for certain how well the paper holds its integrity for that case. The small number of pages of this sketchbook provides a nice way to document your work over short time periods. I would buy this product again.

I had picked this book because I had read some reviews saying it was better than the watercolour version at this size for watercolour. The books is great for light, loose painting and washes. The paper just can't hold up on more complicated or heavier watercolours. It isn't very forgiving for beginners and starts to dissolve and disintegrates. You definitely can't paint on both sizes of the paper.I do have the smaller size (8 inch by 5.5 inch) of the watercolour version of this journal. I definitely noticed a different in how the paper performs. I'll update this review once I do a few projects with a wet on wet technique.

Ich habe das Buch bisher für Aquarell, Fineliner, Buntstift, Bleistift und Marker benutzt. Bei den etwas dickeren Finelinern ist die Rückseite leider nicht mehr zu benutzen, da diese leicht durchbluten. Aquarell habe ich allerdings nicht zu nass gearbeitet, deswegen weiß ich nicht, ob das Papier das verträgt. Bei den Markern habe ich die Crayola Suoer Tip Marker verwendet, welche nicht durchgeblutet haben. Auch verhielt sich das Papier auch bei viel Farbe der Marker stabil, keine Krümelbildung.Zur Haltbarkeit kann ich noch nicht viel sagen, da ich es erst kurz habe und erst ca. 10 Seiten genutzt habe. Ich nutze es momentan auch nur Indoor, aber ich denke, dass es auch für den Gebrauch unterwegs geeignet ist, wenn man diese Größe A4 handhaben kann/will

Valt erg tegen. Dun papier, zou 10 euro goedkoper moeten zijn.

My daughter likes it a lot, the ink and watercolor won’t go through the page. Good quality

Adore this sketchbook, have used for pencil, watercolour and acrylic. Have yet to use charcoal in it but I assume it will handle just as well. The book is tightly bound but with a bit of loving care you can get the thing to lay flat (especially if you clip the pages back which I do anyway for wet media). The 100% cotton pages take watercolour beautifully, minimal buckling and no bleeding. The page size is wonderful for both larger pieces that fill the page and also many smaller pieces on a single page, whatever your style may be. If you use both sides of the page then this sketchbook has more than enough pages to last a while given it's size. However if you use only one side (Which I dont see the point of personally considering the lack of bleeding) then you may want to look to the soft cover as it contains more pages. At the end of the day I cannot find any complaint to be had with this sketchbook. Well worth the price.
