Smooth but not very thick
On the positive side it's lovely and smooth and a nice tan colour. However, this is my fault in a way, as I'd read this was great for pencil artwork I bought it, but without really thinking about the gsm. And on reflection I'd say for my type of artwork, this paper isn't thick enough. If you work into the paper alot you'll find this paper gets dented and mishapen a little. I'm hoping once in a frame this won't matter. But it is slightly annoying.

Amazing Sketchbooks, Buy Them Now
These sketchbooks are perfect for coured pencil artwork. I have attached some imgaes of some drawings i've done. This book holds pencil very well and makes your drawing stand out. The paper is smooth and a great thickness too, even if you press hard the paper wont tear. If you do lots of coloured pencil drawings then these sketchbooks are a must. I love them and will continue to purchase them.

Great quality paper!
This sketchbook is amazing, the paper is the perfect shade so white shows up, but colours aren't distorted. The paper is very smooth and easy to put pencil on! It's a4 so it's nice and big. The paper is quite thick so if you are looking to trace onto it I would definitely buy some tracing paper!

Sturdy
I like the fact that this paper can put up with numerous erasures and is perfect for graphite, charcoal and coloured pencils, the last holding quite a few layers (I've done up to six). The colour also looks pretty, it is a slightly greyish biege that allows colours appear more luminous.

L album era proprio quello di cui avevo bisogno Sono pienamente soddisfatto e lo consiglio a chiunque cerchi un album abbastanza liscio e che permetta di ottenere degli ottimi contrasti di luce ✅ PRO: Liscio, i colori scorrono bene sulla carta. Fogli di alta qualità, si possono fare tantissime sovrapposizioni di colori, per chi è abituato a lavorare a strati 🔴 CONTRO: Forse un po sottili, ma tutto viene compensato dalla qualità dei fogli e dei risultati. Se siete dei disegnatori professionisti e cercate una soluzione professionale per fare ritratti o paesaggi, questo é quello che fa per voi 🔥🔥🔥

Instagramで多くの絵師さん達が使っていて気になっていました。 油性色鉛筆との相性抜群ですね。 まだ一枚しか描いていませんが色乗りが良いですね。

Employé pour des portraits au crayon classique; beau résultat avec les crayons noirs HD; il vaut mieux essayer différentes duretés pour se fa!re une opinion; papier ayant un grain assez fin que pour accepter des détails précis. Je le trouve un peu léger mais excellent comme rendu obtenu; la teinte est peut-être un rien trop prononcée à mon goût mais donne un joli contraste avec le crayon noir; finition soignée, ne peut pas se comparer à un papier bon marché destiné à l'étude. Recommandé. J. P.
