What is your favourate paper for complex origami?

[phillipcurl]

TF is okay to me. I prefer thicker paper, because I make A LOT of wet folded models.
I also use quite a bit of kami.
When I have it, I use Origamido.
another thing is double tissue + mc, ah, I use all kinds of paper. I can't choose a favorite out of my mind right now.

Kami.

Ogami from Paper Circle. IMHO even better than Origamido. I only use it when Lokta, VOG or Unryushi won't do. For example I could't get a great result on Kamiya's grasshopper with unryushi but with Ogami it was much better!

I prefer to use either tracing paper or tissue foil. Tissue can also work great, but it's a bit hard to get the details without wet folding. Double tissue is also pretty good, but I haven't used it a lot so far.

i actually prefer to use stiff paper than soft ones... the one i use often for test folds is "parchment paper" here.. stiff paper, less translucent than tracing paper...

i know that paper, its used a lot in baking i think.

[dren0ma]

i have baking paper as well, but parchment paper is a lot more stiffer/thicker.. i didnt like the baking paper..

I use tissue paper for insects and "sandwich paper" (tissue+foil+tissue) for other models.

Tracing Paper!

[GWB origami]

i have only ever used tracing paper once but i really like the results. i made a dragon designed by me out of it.

My own
70/30 abaca/flax at about 25gsm for complex bugs that need very thing legs.
70/30 abaca/flax MC'd to a single tissue for just about anything else complex ~ 50gsm.

For large sheet test folds (30" + square) 7lb tracing MC'd to a single piece of tissue, it's a bit thick though. I just don't like the feel of tracing paper by itself for some reason.

[phillipcurl]

if you cannot make it good then how is it of any use to you?
