Re: Paper for ryujin
There are many papers which are good for Ryujin. You should do some test folds (scales, head etc.) from the papers You have and then You'll know which one is the best for this model.

Re: Paper for ryujin
Thanks, but will printer paper work like A0 or A1
Re: Paper for ryujin
No, printer paper is way too thick. You'll need something very thin, such as tissue paper. Imo, cheap stuff from the corner shop or something should work, after MCing 2 sheets together, but if you want something of a better quality, just look online for something like Unryu or some other handmade tissue paper. Make sure that it's very thin though.
Re: Paper for ryujin
Will khaki tissue work?
Re: Paper for ryujin
Yeah, I don't think colour really matters aside from for aesthetic purposes. Just be sure to reinforce with MC.
Re: Paper for ryujin
Isn't that the expensive stuff used in wallpapers? And what does reinforce with mc mean? (sorry mc noob here we just use tracing paper to fold here :p)

Re: Paper for ryujin
You can join smaller papers together. I haven't used it much, but I bet tracing paper would work.

What should I use to join the paper
