I'm sure if you search you can find answers for that question.

I don't know about that-hanji has been hard to come by for me. The only place I have ever seen it is at OUSA conventions, and unfortunately there was nont this year :cry:

I was actually looking for hanji last night and discovered that Hiromi Paper now carries it. They only sell hanji in a natural color, so you'll have to add color yourself. Also, make sure you look at the details before you buy--some of their hanji consists of a mixture of hanji and sulphite instead of 100% hanji.

Hanji is a Korean handmade paper, i believe it is the Korean equivalent to Washi, but I could be wrong.

Robert Lang uses it a lot to fold his models.

I recall that Origami8 posted a picture of some Hanji after wetfolding - maybe she can help you.
