Re: Sketchcrawling In WWI?
Wow, that's incredible. I know Sargent did watercolours for the british army during WWI. I'll look for a link. Very interesting read, thank you.

Re: Moleskine Watercolor Notebook Review and tests
Dandelion, I just came back from visiting Europe. One of the things I made sure to buy was a Hahnemühle sketchbook. I bought a large hard cover book, I'm excited to see how it handles light washes.

Re: Moleskine Watercolor Notebook Review and tests
I think Moleskines are awesome for some things. I think for other purposes they do not perform well. I know everybody loves Moleskines and we all buy them all the time, including myself.
