Both, your model and your paper are very good! Keep your work.

I take information on great LaFosse book Advanced Origami and from others papermaking books.

I make all my equipament. And buy pulp,pigments, additives from an Spanish supplier.

Very nice model and paper!!! I think its too much work to do the paper as well as the model!!!! but one good thing is you get to colour the paper as you like it so its pretty cool if you know how to make paper as sometimes you need this.
