Review on 📔 Pentalic Hardbound Sketch Book - 8.5x11 Inch Format by Carla Anderson

I've been using these albums (along with the Utrecht bound albums) for 10-15 years now. I switched to this one when Pentalic stopped making 80 lb books. paper (my favorite). I work with a pencil and sometimes with a pen. Usually with a pencil though. The quality of Pentalic paper is very good. It survives my shading and some (but not repeated) erasing with a hard eraser. The paper holds very well if you lighten the tone with the necessary eraser. The paper has a great tooth for shading. Also, the paper is white, not creamy or colorless, so I don't have to compensate for that after scanning the drawings. I just wish the paper was a little thicker. The binding is my favorite. It lays flat on my scanner without damaging the spine of the book. I only use 11x14 for studio work, final drawings. Two thumbs up.
