Arto paper is from the Netherlands. Medium grain, and you can lift and blend easily. It's considered a budget paper, I think? But great for price. Note that I'm still learning watercolor stuff. So anyway, I'm trying to get Loop's skintone right.

Next up....Stillman & Birn Zeta. Holy crap. I like. It takes my inks AND the Holbein colors nicely, not that you can tell from my doodles, but.... Ok, definitely a yes, except they don't sell it here. Darn.

You can definitely see where the paint just....splotches. so, no. Sigh. I have so much of this paper. Sell.

I am a dragon when it comes to stationery and art supply hoards. It gets ugly.

So..color tests. This one is Holbein watercolor on so-called Elias paper, which is a locally available coated paper marketed for fountain pen users. Great for inks, awful for watercolors....the ink pools and becomes splotchy. Good thing I hate the drawing!

Thinking of getting the Castlevania Animation artbook, so I put in an order with FullyBooked. I loved the designs. Came for the Alucard, stayed for the Trevor.

Well, this comic artist forgot #PortfolioDay again! #gn #comics #graphicnovel https://t.co/k4Iz0zEbTm

Giving the rough Elric sketch a try. Breaking out a brushpen and black cheap color pencil. So far...it's fun.
