I'm in need of some good paper for more complex models. I've been cought around the some level for awhile now. I've folded things like Marc Kirschenbaum's Bee and Biplane, but that's about as complex as I've gotten. I'm used to folding with lined stationary, but I would like to be able to fold larger models. What do you paper people suggest and where can I order some?
Also, what would you suggest for models by Micheal G. Lafosse?
Keep in mind, I'm looking for something not too expensive.

If you can make tissue foil , its a very sturdy and good paper, but reversing creases are a pain in that.
For Michael Lafosse's Models i would suggest a good handmade paper which you can wetfold.
I use handmade paper for all my models because i cant find anything else in my country. Also handmade papers are very good during folding and are also good for shaping. They are a little expensive though...

Reversing creases on tissue foil is near to impossible on the one made with spray glue, but works like a dream on the one made with white glue. The folding abilities of the one made with white glue are also far better.

I made mine with white glue,
Its still hard to reverse

Tracing paper works well for all types of models.

In my limited experience, both are true: with spray adhesive, reversing folds seems a bit harder than with white glue (PVA)... but it's still not super crisp and easy. Easier, perhaps, because the white glue has a bit more "body" to it...

I guess, cause i never tried spray glue
