Expert Reviews


What reviewers liked

It’s constructed with a durable leather-look cover that lies flat to provide a sturdy drawing surface and holds 100 lightly perforated sheets of medium weight paper with clean white coloring.
The sketchbook is made of very high-quality material. The cover is hardbound, giving it support and longevity. The binding is made by metal spiral, and the paper quality is top notch. It is resistant to bleeding, rough erasing as well as shading.
Suitable for any dry media including colored pencils, markers, pens, charcoal, graphite, pastels and crayons, you can use it as a media sketchbook, fashion sketchbook, even as one of a series of manga drawing books.
Apart from beautiful design and high-quality cover that will protect your art no matter what, one of the most important features is the flat-surface it offers. Along with that, there are more than enough pages to draw on (100 sheets) and with adequate maintenance, it should last you for a long time.

What reviewers didn't like

Pages too thin for some.
This sketchbook may not be the best choice if you are an artist using hard markers and heavyweight watercolors as well as gels. This is mostly due to the fact that paper is lightweight and transparent, and any kind of heavier media might bleed through.
