Single/double MC

Post by Rickygami »

Got a ton of tissue paper in the post today :) this should keep me going for a while. Is it worth making any single tissue MC sheets or will it be unworkable? I think I'll make mostly double tissue, just wondering how useful the thinner sheets would be?

When folding the ancient dragon, should I use single or double thai unryu?

I would go with a single treated sheet instead of back-coating it.

I've found that single tissue is just too thin, you can make models from it, but unless they are insects with all kinds of layers in the legs it just will be too flimsy. I've rarely found models that DTMC was too thick for..
