Well, I'm going to step out and be a total neophyte here...
BLUF (Bottom line up front):
What type of paper should I be using?!
Traditional office / copier paper seems MUCH too thin. I stopped by an art supply store and got some card stock, but that seems too thick (The foam board is CERTAINLY too thick... That’s for another project I have in mind)
I've heard people mention different weights of paper.. where can I go an look for these different weights? Michaels, AC Moore, Staples?!
Also, which (in your collective experience) is the best weight of paper for building 40k tanks? Something easy enough to work with, but sturdy enough for the game table. I'd think (but I might be totally wrong) that our needs and requirements as gamers might indicate the need for a tougher or more durable paper than the traditional modelers creating a display piece.
Thoughts? Opinions? Criticisms? All are welcome. Again, thanks in advance.
