    Thank you for the history lesson and introduction to Viceversa Paper collective. Also thank you for putting your sketchbook through the paces; the quality of the paper speaks for itself.
    Looking forward to placing an order and experiencing the different weights and textures in person.
    I have subscribed and look forward to your next video. 😊

      Thank you so much! And me too, I am so excited about the other sketchbooks I ordered - I can't wait to test them out and report back! They seem like such a cool little company, too!

    Hold your horses! I am not able to pin this comment (still waiting on that elusive UA-cam approval), but I have since bought 4 extra sketchbooks with handmade paper, and the paper in each book appears to be different! It is all handmade cotton paper, however - just different textures and tints. So, if you order from Viceversa, keep in mind that the paper you may receive might be slightly different to the one above, so may not be suited for certain media (e.g. pencil, if the texture is rough, for example). It is all however very high quality paper at an amazing price (two of the sketchbooks I got were a full A4 size, 300gsm!) and I am super excited to test it out!
    I have also just placed another order for plain paper rather than sketchbooks - I have bought sheets in every single texture and colour available, so I can do a thorough testing and report back! This will be in a video in maybe a couple of months from now - sorry about the wait!

      me: "this paper is really good value - extremely cheap!"
      also me: (proceeds to spend absolute fortune buying short of every single product on offer)

    I also just realised I accidentally uploaded a non-final version of the video, so some of the captions and sound transitions are... rough, and some sounds are missing! Oh well, it stays (the upload took a couple of hours). Could have saved myself the extra work, though! You live and learn. Oops.

      I mean... it would still have been rough. Just... maybe a bit less rough, hahaha

      unfortunately UA-cam won't allow me to pin this comment until my account is verified... "from my smartphone". I don't own a smartphone! The alternative is to wait a couple of months for UA-cam to verify the channel "through engagement". So please leave a comment or a like if you feel like it - it will help me get verified faster!
