What type of paper for Kamiya's Phoenix 3.5?

Post by ieatpho »

I am trying to fold Kamiya's Phoenix 3.5 currently. I tried to fold it with wrapping paper, the folds are easy and neat, but i cannot see the crease lines which messes me up alot. I am wondering where can I get big paper so I can fold this Phoenix. If you can help thanks, if you can't, go suck a straw.

I don't think sucking a straw is any tipical, but I used 40cm x40cm size mullberry paper for my phoenix 3.5, If you want, check my flickr profile for some of the phoenixes I folded to see how they turn out. But I am not sure where to get the paper, so I am not much help to you.

It would us to answer your question if we knew where you live...
Kraft pape seems to work well. You can get it at basically any art supply or even Rite-Aid.

Almost definitely. I know I can. Look up art supply stores in your directory and you'll be able to find other good papers quite easily.
