Just one complaint

The pages have the same structure on both sides. My watercolors warp a bit, which is to be expected at only 220g, and if you want to use other mediums that don't soak into the pages, they don't bleed as much, if at all. There is also a small pocket on the inside of the back cover. The only complaint I have is the small elastic loop at the top for a pen or mechanical pencil, which broke after about a week.

Pros
  • Notebooks and notepads
Cons
  • Fading

The watercolor paper is unmarked but still looks like

Bought this magazine hoping it would have the same watercolor paper as Carp. I figured if it was regular paper it still wouldn't be too outrageous a price for a hardcover sketch magazine with a fancy cover. Luckily it looks like it's the same paper as the Karp cover, which I also bought on a separate order. It's thin for toilet paper, but I've had no issues with it warping or warping when I paint. It seems pretty much on par with other WM magazines I have, it has more pages than most of themโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Art paper
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Not exactly "watercolor " album

I wouldn't call this album "watercolor" because the paper used for watercolors is of poor quality. Even with a light glaze, the paper fibers opened up and the paper dried very wavy. I'm a little disappointed as I was looking for a sketchbook specifically for watercolors. Still, I gave 4 stars because it's still a nice little sketchbook. The cover design is beautiful (I bought the red peony drawing) and the paper is still good enough for ink illustration and seems to do well with gouache. Forโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Art supplies
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
