Thanks Nicolas,

That's a good hint, if you like to prepare paper for your models, surely.

I was just wondering if anyone already compared different brands and
checked which ones offer a good quality in terms of "support" (the white
paper which is then coloured), in terms of hiding the color (with as little
transparency as possible, preserving a fair thinness).

If any of you would check its paper storage, and check the red/white paper
(the red color seems to me the most easy to be recognized on the other
side, in transparency) from different types of paper.. and publish a
picture, I would appreciate it a lot, in comparison with my finding.
The best "photo comparison" would be putting the origami paper on the white
side up, aside of a bright white photocopy paper, and everything on a
white/light surface.

Thanks in advance,
Lorenzo
