Hello all,

I heard this is great paper for folding hard models and is easy to mold

Exactly like home made tissue foil but with out the hassle or mess of making it?

BUT, This stuff just does not exists in France

any Ideas or help?

I tried searching online and found some shops that sell it but I am not sure if it is the correct stuff and delivery to France is 52 Dollars for a roll of 9 dollar foil.

Any help here would be appreciated,

I just bought tissue foil from http://www.origami-shop.com which is great but I could not get the shaping right as it does not hold shape.

Thanks

Thanks, I looked there and I need to order a min of 50 dollars

I would not mind spending that to stock up but I want to order a smaller amount to see first.

It seems this country I live in never has anything I need lol

Initially it may seem like very decent for complex models, but you want to be careful of the ones with a plastic film over it. I do, however, have some great successes with them. The texture/patterns are very nice for models like Lafosse's bat and frog. However, for the not so happy folds, I shall refer to Terry's cartoon frog I folded a few years back
