Golden (sunflower) yellow indeed :)
Nice colour, nice paper (smooth, not granular)

Fantastic sketch book
Having used a range of sketchbooks over the years, some of which never get much beyond the first couple of pages, this is the best I've had for carrying around and general use. Smooth paper, perfect for the super fine ballpoint I like to use but thick enough to take light watercolor washes if required. All the pages open flat, and it's well made too, it feels like it will survive bumping around in a bag. I used moleskine before..lovely but expensive and you feel like you have to be perfect using them. With this pad I don't mind doing daft things and wasting paper, or gluing things in. It's a really lovely little book, and the square 12x12 size is a refreshing change too. I will be getting more!

Good for travelling and little sketches
Good size for travelling or doing little sketches in. Have used acrylic paint in it and it’s been fine. Good quality pages.

Love this sketchbook!
This was my 3rd purchase of this sketchbook and I absolutely love it! It’s perfect for pencils and watercolour but also has paper thick enough for mixed media, I also really like the off white colour of the paper as I find it a lot easier to draw on. Ive brought it in A5 multiple times so it’s a perfect size for travel.

Decent
This is a good sketchbook although I wouldn't recommend it for watercolours. The paper is strong but warps a lot when watercolour is added, which is fair considering the weight of the paper. Lovely size for travelling and the cover colours really are gorgeous in person.

My go-to sketchbooks
I always come back to this brand for more sketchbooks. I've had 5 of these sturdy little A6 sketchbooks and they're great, though be warned they don't lay flat and they can be tough to draw in due to the paper size. The pages are very thick and a cream colour (thankfully not white) that's easy on the eyes. Worth the fiver!

My second one and I LOVE it
The photos are of my first sketchbook which is a portrait version. The one I am reviewing is the landscape version. Great for both wet and dry media. I have used pencils, pastels (both oil and soft - which need "fixing" if you don't want the opposite side of the paper to get marked), watercolour, Neocolor IIs and gouache so far and as long as the wet medium isn't too wet, the paper performs impressively well. These are not a cult favourite for no reason. I will continue to buy these sketchbooks over other brands. They're perfect for my everyday sketching requirements. Definitely recommend.

Calidad perfecta
Cuaderno excelente para bocetar. El papel no traspasa y tiene una calidad inigualable. Tiene muchas páginas, por lo que cunde. El precio es ideal.

A cute portable sketchbook!
I have to write this review again because amazon deleted my first one, hah... If I miss any crucial details I apologize. But I really do like this sketchbook! As a tiny objects enjoyer this is definitely up there with cuteness. It's the tiniest and cutest sketchbook I own and it's very good quality :) I love that the paper is a little on the thicker end (not too much so, but noticeable compared to other sketchbooks I have) And the paper doesn't warp too bad when you use watercolor. It did warp at first when I did the light wash of pink on the first drawing, but dried to be fairly flat which surprised me! It also handles gesso very well too, which I used for the pony drawing. I put a couple layers on because the crayola markers I was using weren't working super well as watercolor... Watercolor markers MAY not work with this sketchbook, as it doesn't have the same effect as it would with say a canson sketchbook, sad... But you can fix this problem with a layer or two of gesso, and it won't warp or anything like that. I did test a page with alcohol markers, and they did bleed through. If you want to use alcohol markers in this sketchbook I would recommend using a layer of gesso, taping the pages, or just skipping the bled-through page altogether. Overall a very nice portable sketchbook, I really like the color of it and the toned pages as well. Not something I've had before, but it's a nice touch! I can't wait to bring it with me when I start my classes again :)
