5.0 out of 5 stars One of my favourite things
I love this little book. Absolutely love it. I try to sketch every day and this sketchbook sits on my desk next to me all day. The size is perfect for a very quick sketch - important for those days when I have little time.I've used graphite pencil, carbon pencils and artists coloured pencil and they all go down well on the paper. The paper is smooth with very little tooth and I really like it. It's off-white which I think helps with sketching as a harsh bright white page can be a little intimidating.The cover is nice and soft and flexible. I know some prefer a hard cover but I like this one. It's got a nice premium feel and it's not leather so it's animal friendly.I'll be buying more when I fill this one for sure. I've included pics of a few sketches and examples including a couple of silly ones, just to show the different mediums on the pages.

Nice pad, good quality item
4.0 out of 5 stars Best suited for pencils and no wet media.
'Giftable' is a bit of a random option when reviewing! Something to do with its properties as a sketch book would make more sense. Anyway.This is the first Leda sketchbook I have used. I do have an issue with the branding (the Leda and the swan tale is described as a 'romance' which it definitely was not) but that hasn't influenced my review or rating.I have mixed feelings about this sketchbook.On a positive note, the sketchbook looks and feels good - it is a decent weight without being heavy or bulky, the flexible cover has an almost velvety feel to it, and I like the off-white paper. I have used it several times and it has been carried about in bags etc, and is wearing well so far.It is at its best when used for pencil sketching. The paper is smooth, the book lays flat when open so you can easily sketch across both pages, always useful if you are a landscape artist. It can handle some pen and ink, but nothing heavy as it starts to ghost on the other side. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoy using pencil on this paper, plus it erases well (ideally with a normal rubber rather than an electric one).Downsides are that the description is a little confusing. It states that the paper is best suited to pencil, coloured pencil and pastels because water and paint will make it buckle - but next to that is a photo of a watercolour bird that looks perfectly smooth. In my ever so 'umble opinion it isn't suitable for glues, paints or water, or heavier ink pens or markers.This makes it a bit expensive for a sketchbook with quite a limited range (£12.25).So, one star off for the above issues, which aren't anything dire, and 5 stars because it looks and feels good, and is very effective with pencils.Hope that helps!

5.0 out of 5 stars A very nice sketchbook
This sketchbook is a handy size with very nice paper for sketching. I bought it as a present for my young granddaughter and when given was put into immediate use
5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely little book
I've used this for journaling and been writing and sketching on it every day. The pens don't seep through the pages which is ideal.The cover feels class and I love it but what I've noticed now that I'm onto the final pages is that part of the cover is coming away from the book... I'll likely glue it but it's not ideal... but, like I said, this is it having been used everyday, twice a day and handled alot so wear and tear is to be expected.All in I'm happy with it and would purchase again
5.0 out of 5 stars Art student loves it
Bought it as a secret present for an 'A' level student. As soon as she saw it she was pleased and is using it for her summer project art. Just the right size for a pocket or small bag. Good quality paper.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for sketching worth it
Great book for sketching worth it
Surprised Paper quality is excellent
Working with Leda Sketchbook pleasantly surprised that the paper is smooth and durable - takes color pencil and ink and water color washes beautifully. No bleeding through the paper however I am prudent with watercolor washes which will bubble the paper slightly if you are conservative with the water color washes. The off white tone of the paper and smoothness is outstanding. Glad I purchased on impulse and will definitely purchase again. Well worth the price and the pseudo leather binding is excellent.
Beautiful
Gorgeous texture on the front and back, takes ink or graphite smoothly. Great quality but a tad expensive
Einwandfreies Skizzenbuch!
Top Papierqualität. Tolle Haptik.
Precio elevado
Es muy buena libreta con muy buen papel pero se pueden encontrar opciones de la misma calidad por menor precio.
Klasse Skizzenbuch!
Ich kaufe dieses Skizzenbuch seit einigen Jahren immer mal wieder und bin sehr zufrieden!Ich habe schon viel getestet und bis auf die Skizzenbücher von TALENS Art Creation noch keine Besseren für mich gefunden.Das Papier ist angenehm glatt und hält einiges aus.Es ist nicht zu dick, nicht zu dünn, und auch Mixed Media (in meinem Fall Buntstifte, Aquarell (begrenzt), Acrylfarben und Ink) sind gut darin zu verwenden.Feder ist nach meiner Erfahrung etwas schwierig, da es die Oberfläche des Papiers ankratzt und so die Linien ausfedern, aber u. B. Kugelschreiber, Brushpens oder Gelstifte funktionieren sehr gut für Lineart und Co.Das Soft cover mag ich persönlich gerne, wenn ich an meinem Schreibtisch arbeite. Ich habe die Erfahrung gemacht, dass das Zeichnen im Zug oder unterwegs damit etwas problematisch ist, da es doch sehr elastisch ist, aber das ist Absichtssache.An sich gehört es zu den teureren Skizzenbüchern, aber ich gönne es mir ab und zu mal ganz gerne, einfach weil es Spaß macht darin zu explodieren.Kann es empfehlen und ist bestimmt kein schlechter Kauf!
