What an incredible video. I could tell this took a TON of planning, preparation, and editing time. Thanks for going through all this trouble to demonstrate the different types of outcomes one can expect from acrylic markers. VERY helpful and well produced video.

@@AngelaPanArt It certainly will moving forward. I'm partial to uncoated paper, but I'm just getting started with Poscas and it seems as though smooth/coated/sturdy stock is the way to go in order to avoid tearing up the paper or the nibs.

Hi Angela! This month I'm practicing with Posca markers, so I'm rewatching all of your tutorial videos. I got a sample of the Legion Yupo medium paper, and it seems to have the same qualities you like in paper. I'm going to get a larger size today - the main difference from the paper you recommend would be the price. This is expensive! But I think it's a good choice. Today I'm also maybe going to get some of these other "synthetic" papers, like stone paper and another one I saw last time in the store - I think it was made from plastic. I'll be interested to see how they work. Anyway, just tossing those out there if you ever wanted to try them!

@AngelaPanArt Жыл бұрын

I just looked up Legion Yupo medium paper and the description looks really promising! I'm gonna have to try it out once I run out of my current paper stock! Thanks for letting me know Rita :) It's so hard finding the perfect paper for acrylic markers!

Have you heard of Rendr sketchbooks? They boast that it can be used for all media, including Posca. I know some marker paper is intended more for alcohol markers and focuses on being non-bleeding, but like you said, the coating definitely seems to make a huge difference for Posca. Rendr does not seem to be coated, so I wonder how it would actually stand up.

@AngelaPanArt 3 жыл бұрын

I've never heard of it, but I can try it out next time I'm looking for new sketchbooks :) Yeh from doing this test I realized you can achieve okay to good results on uncoated smooth paper but for best results you'd need coated paper; for my style and techniques at least :D

This is such a nice and well edited video! Thank you so much Angela. For all the effort and for sharing 🙏🏻 I just followed your Domestika course, ordered paper (again)but was second guessing whether I made the right choices I have some questions as cardstock paper is not a common term in Western Europe. Do you know where to find it? Do you have a translation of the term, perhaps in French? Because your Amazon links don't work in this part Europe and there are no shopping, results when I just Google it. Did you try the very affordable Claire Fontaine Paint On Lisse paper? And Amsterdam acrylic paint paper (in nice sketchbooks) I already spent a lot of money on paper and just ordered the expensive Molotow sketchbooks. But now I see your video I don't have to ruin a new sketchbook again, because it's not what I'm looking for. Mossery ships to the Netherlands 🙌🏼 however shipping is more expensive than the sketchbook itself. Plus your covers are sold out Why looking for good paper is such a quest? 😂

Hi Marianne! Coated cardstock is a type of paper used for printing business cards and booklet covers, it's coated and much thicker than regular paper, basically you need to find a paper that is smooth and slightly glossy, and that should help with blending :)

The watercolor paper is too rough and will wear out the nibs on your parents much quicker. I look for mixed media paper, marker paper, and I have used card stock. You can make your own gesso so it’s cheaper but it is so boring
