It's the first time since its release that I've spotted the Inkling mentioned as more than a technological curiosity beyond Wacom's product page. The Autodesk Sketchbook Pro Facebook feed posted a link to this video produced in June for ImagineFX magazine by Nick Harris. But the included Sketch Manager software was terrible, the digitizer missed many lines and the end results were pretty much useless.Īnd so the Wacom Inkling went into my closet of obsolete technology to be forgotten.until this morning. Like all Wacom hardware, the Inkling is a premium, well-designed device. Once it arrived, the magic quickly wore off. Sounds magical, right? Especially two years ago when I plunked down $200 for it. When connected to your computer, the analog drawing is captured. The Inkling is a pen and digitizer you clip to any drawing pad to record your sketches. Overall quality of the sketchbook is top notch.Īt the time of this review, the price of these sketchbooks start from US $39 and varies depending on the paper used.In a half lifetime littered with ill-advised impulse purchases, there are few I've regretted as much as my Wacom Inkling. I painted Phthalo Blue, a staining colour, and allowed it to draw, and it was reactivated when I painted the yellow over it. But do test the paper with your paint first. The coldpress surface texture is a bit rough for coloured pencil use. No good in the sense that paint does not move as far on wet surfaces, and when charging in paint to a wet surface, the blend is not as soft. Wet on wet techniques are possible but not as good compared to Arches watercolour paper. While the binding is tight, water can still seep through if you use too much water. There's some watercolour that has seep through the binding to the page with the gouache. And watercolour paint is able to remain on the surface of the paper so transparent colours appear vibrant.Įven though this 300gsm paper is thick, alcohol markers can still bleed through the paper. The quality of this paper is fantastic and it works great with watercolour. The paper in this particular sketchbook I have is Fabriano Artistico with 100% cotton 300gsm watercolour paper. Shown above are some pen and ink sketches with watercolour. The first and last pages are glued to the endpaper of the cover though, so those are the only pages that can't open flat. The binding allows the sketchbook to be opened flat. Each signature has two pieces of paper that makes up eight pages. Such elastic band usually lose their elasticity with time so it's great to know that when it does happen, the band is not stuck to the sketchbook. I like the fact that the elastic band is not stitched to the sketchbook. These are some ideas on how you can use the elastic band. The band can also be used to keep the paper flat. The sketchbook comes with a wide clothed elastic band that you can use to strap your tools together with the sketchbook. The covers are available in black, gray, dark blue, white and pink(?).Įach sketchbook has all the details of the watercolour paper written on the front. The surface feels slightly rubberised and seems durable. The hardcover is made of veneer that looks like leather. The sketchbooks that I've received from Tomasz for this review are hardcover sketchbooks that come with the corners cut sharp. They are available with different cotton content (50% and 100%), surfaces and paper weight. The sketchbooks use Arches, Arches Expression and Fabriano Artistico paper. The line of sketchbooks are called Sketchbook Pro. Koval is a company founded by Tomasz Kowal in Poland that specialises in making watercolour sketchbooks that uses cotton watercolour paper.
