Canson XL Series Drawing Pad, Side Wire Bound, 9x12 inches, 60 Sheets - Artist Paper for Students, Marker, Pen, Ink, Pencil

For the price, this is a really good sketchbook! Perfect for drawing without being worried about the price of the sketchbook. The paper's thickness is like construction paper.If you want to use markers, watercolor, etc., they don't bleed through the paper too much, but I don't really recommend it ... Multiple layers of watercolor would definitely make the pages buckle.

The top coiled version of this paper is short grain, which makes it wonderful for bookbinding, but this left side coil bound pad has a long grain and limits its use in binding hard cover books. The paper is amazing though! Even writing with a fountain pen, the paper takes the ink well. Just enough texture to making pencil sketching easy, and thick enough to allow for some correcting those occasional mistakes.

also takes very wet ink well, such as from a fountain pen, dip pen, or dipped inkbrush, highly recommended for these marking methods over, say, bristol board (which is much better for drier inks used in brush pens but very bad for very wet ink). if you're a novice with wet inks though, use a spill sheet/desk protector. no paper on earth will withstand the worst you can do to it with a wet ink pen so it's better to be safe.

Es el primer cuaderno de dibujo que compré de esta marca y me encanto. Resiste muy bien los borrones, el grosor de la hoja es exactamente el que buscaba. Dibujo retratos a lápiz así que se los recomiendo aquellos que estén probando

Si bien no era exactamente lo que esperaba no me puedo quejar del producto, llegó en perfectas condiciones como todo lo que he comprado en Amazon, las hojas son delgadas y algo lisas, pero cumplen su función, en cuanto al tamaño del cuaderno, si esperaba que fuera mas grande, pero para un sketch book si es muy apropiado, me tomará un tiempo acabarlo
