Review on Speedball Quattro Artist Sketch Journal by Linda Diaz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great feel, processing quality, sufficient line width, perfect perforations and a really good price!

I've filled out a few of these journals and love them. I'm an engineer and I prefer to write small and fine. The grid is small enough to fit a lot of information neatly on the page, and it's very handy for creating vertical columns and checklists, as well as thumbnails and sample charts. The grid is also faint, making anything written with a pen very visible. The pages are strong and the perforations are just enough for you to rip out if you want, not if you don't. There are also many sides, which is nice. The only downside for me is that it gets annoying when I've used a lot of pages and all the used pages try to go back to the page I'm using. Eventually I rip them all out and staple them together, which is hardly a good system if you're interested in archiving your notes. Either way they are excellent value for money and I will continue to use them. The canvas bag is also a good accessory, but it would be better if it was 1/4 inch wider and could fit other laptops. I recommend the canvas holder for this laptop as it is a good way to protect the laptop and has a handy pocket.

Pros
  • 5.5" x 8.5" center grid
Cons
  • Doubtful
