Royal Talens – Art Creation Hardback Sketchbook – 80 Sheets – 140gsm – 12 x 12cm – Red Cover

Very good quality, nice thick paper so you can easily use it on both sides of the page. Used with fineliners so far.

This is a lovely little sketchbook, with a good solid cover and firmly bound. The pages can be opened flat and the paper is good quality for a sketchbook. A Sharpie marker will show through to the back of the page but not bleed through to the next. Although it isn't a watercolour book, the pages will take a good amount of water albeit with some slight buckling. All in all, a good little pocket sketchbook.

I bought this as a tiny sketchbook specifically to use my alcohol markers in to practice. I love it so much it's so dinky and great. Royal Talens have such good quality sketchbooks I will definitely buy more of them in the future.

Love the book, small enough to carry in my handbag for quick sketches and notes

It is very handy to take everywere wit me.

Love the paper of this notebook. My colour pencils lay it on amazingly. Also, the size is much smaller than I expected but it is creat for a quick drawings.The cover is nice to touch and pretty thick and protective. Definitely recommend

Lovely little book

I liked the size of this sketchbook and its paper. Great to carry with you all the time. Good for pencils, a light wash of watercolour, graphite. Some inks bleed through to the other side of the sheet. Though Faber castell Pitt pens with India ink perform great on this paper. So the best way is to test the paper with your favourite art supplies when you first try it.Was slightly disappointed because of two things:- too yellow almost vintage colour of the paper - it can affect the look of your artwork (if you care);- the book started to fall apart very soon - since I hate losing pages or even the look of it I used scotch every four sheets to put it together. Annoying but in the end does not stop me from using it.
