Fuxi Small Sketch Book, Spiral-Bound Sketchbook 5.5 x 8.5 2-Pack 200 Sheets

The covers on these are very solid, like laminated hardcover book material, which is more durable than paper or cardboard. You can even stand this sketchbook up like an easel. The paper is only 68 lbs, but thick enough to take markers and pens. Not sure if I'd do extensive washes or anything more wet than linework. Love the size and the spiral at the short end. Pages are perforated, which is nice for taking out pages neatly. Very happy, especially for the price.

I gave a few of these sketchbooks to friends during the holiday season. I paired it with micro pens that completed the gift. Great weight of paper. Quality paper. Looks and feels good this lovely book. I chose this size for easy portability that I knew my friends may like. And they did. My Grandson sketches a lot and he now has a mini portfolio. He loves it too.

Lowkenuinely love these sketchbooks because of their size and portability. I can put them in my bag easily, AND the hardback is a major plus too! For such a small price, they are such good quality. 💖

PERFECT sketch book for acrylic markers! Straight to the point, the quality for the value is unbeatable! I paid $15 for the two books, a total of 100 pages. Brand names charge a dollor or more per page at times! I also like that each book has 50 pages. Competitors had mostly 20 pages options and that just isn't enough. I don't need to carry FIVE different books. Two is perfect! I used Grabie Acrylic markers. I noticed reviews claimed the pages leaked through. I had no such issues with heavy, HEAVY inking. There's probably 30 layers or more on some sections of my dragon drawing. And I went to town with mixing colors when wet. No pilling. No leaking. No wrinkles or warping. It handled some rough treatment. I also love that they are dual hard cover. It's definitely going to help them last and protect the corners better. And the spiral being at the top is also a welcome feature. I happen to be right handed but I like that it wouldn't matter on this sketchbook. I also bought the larger yellow version but the quality of the paper and covers are identical. The paper is acid-free so it shouldn't yellow or deteriorate. I've never had a problem from acid-free before, but if something happens in 10 years I'll come back and let you know lol! I'm over the moon for these sketchpads! The fact that they are off brand doesn't matter. If anything they offer better quality than you can get elsewhere. I will mention, they are MARKER pads. And the people who said they struggled with this paper were using alcohol markers. I used acrylic. If you do use alcohol markers, you may have to be slightly gentler on the paper. It can handle a LOT! But I don't think it should be as wet as water color. 11/10 for me and my purposes! <3

good for what I needed but I wish they were a little cheaper. erasability is ok but not great. book is good quality though.

These sketchbook are the perfect size for me. I always am on the lookout for smaller sketchbooks that spiral at the top and can never find any in person, so I order them here. I never use the full page of larger sketchbooks unless I'm drawing up thumbnail sketches for a client, so for personal use these are the way to go.

Good quality worked great with my sharpie pens. Paper has a very nice thickness to me not too thick but won't break easy. Very happy with this item. The color of the paper looks great and I like the front cover of the pad. The size of the pad is very nice I feel like I could use it for drawings and storyboards.

If you're an artist looking for a top-notch sketch pad, look no further. This one has quickly become my new favorite. ​What immediately stands out is the paper quality. It's a nice, heavy weight that can handle a variety of mediums. I've used it for everything from graphite and charcoal to ink and markers, and it holds up beautifully without any bleed-through or warping. The texture is smooth but has just enough tooth to grab onto pencils, which makes shading and detail work a breeze. ​The pad itself is also incredibly durable. The spiral binding is sturdy and doesn't get bent out of shape, and the hardcovers provide a firm surface for drawing on the go

Les pages ne sont pas blanches. Elles sont plutôt couleur crème. Je suis tres déçue de cet achat.
