Review on Crescent Cardboard Co RENDR No Show Thru 9x12 Drawing Pad - 24 Sheets by Kelsey Brown

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This sketchbook is a must have for ALL Copic marker lovers!

I fell in love with this sketchbook many years ago when I visited a craft supply store and bought a smaller version of it. I thought that due to the high price it must be good. I was right! Bit the bullet, paid a higher price and haven't regretted it since, now I've upgraded to the larger version. develop with them and find the right paper. I have a lot of sketchbooks. I tried Bristol, it seemed to me that it works better. I even tried a few different "markers" and didn't like them because the paper was so thin. The media didn't bleed through, but the paper was clear making it difficult to show your art. Some time later, I stumbled upon the world of Rendra's Crescent. The paper is amazing. Just the perfect thickness, the perfect paper for Copic markers AND any other media, wet or dry. This sketchbook gives me more space to create and is easy to design. I haven't had a problem with paper falling out (not saying it can't happen, it will, like everyone else) as is common with this type of (non-spiral) sketchbook. I know 24 sheets might sound a bit crazy, but you can actually use both sides of the paper, so that's about 48 pages! I cannot recommend them to artists.
