Masa Paper Help

Post by Benlewisorigami »

Hey guys! So I just bought some paper from Daniel Smith Art Supplies (http://www.danielsmith.com/ )

I got some extra money from snow shoveling and decided to order some quality paper. I got 5 sheets of Unyru, 2 sheets of Sekishu, and 3 sheets of Masa. Masa was the cheapest thing they had in the Japanese handmade paper section, so I thought "what the heck, it's only a dollar" Has anyone ever tried this paper or heard of it? If you have, please let me know. Thanks guys!

Ben


P.S. This is the Masa Paper http://www.danielsmith.com/Item--i-262-020-021
I would rather fail trying than fail without trying....

Thanks for the reply. It came a few days ago. It was in the "handmade japanese paper" section. It's almost like a thicker Kraft paper. Probably good for 3D elephants
