first off, this question requires the help of someone who uses either Copic markers or Prisma markers as a means for color;

Okay, I do alot of work with prisma markers (and I mean ALOT) and I have found that there is no better paper for this (to me) than Copic’s Special Processed paper selections (1-5). Up until recently, I had all that I could need of this particular paper. However, I ran out, and when I went back to buy more of it, I was told that it was discontinued! o\_O Basically, what I need, is any paper with the same touch, surface, and texture of the paper. If anyone at all can give me a hand I would be ETERNALLY grateful! (my illustrations are only half the picture without color \>\<)

Just for referrence:

Paper that I used which is discontinued:

[http://us.st11.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/animebooks-com\_1918\_55065339](http://us.st11.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/animebooks-com_1918_55065339) \<—(I don’t buy from anime books-they killed my last orders with their crappy shipping… the paper was totally bent)

Paper that I have already tried and do not find helpful:

[http://www.southernphoto.com/PRODUCT\_IMAGES/LARGE/ACI-B234-1114.jpg](http://www.southernphoto.com/PRODUCT_IMAGES/LARGE/ACI-B234-1114.jpg) \<—(too smooth, and doesn’t give the true color of the marker)  
[http://www.southernphoto.com/PRODUCT\_IMAGES/LARGE/ACI-BDEN-1114.jpg](http://www.southernphoto.com/PRODUCT_IMAGES/LARGE/ACI-BDEN-1114.jpg) \<—(this paper smears the ink and pencil-not for my style… it’s like drawing/coloring on tape \<\<)  
[http://www.akadotretail.com/images\_osc/PMpadA3.jpg](http://www.akadotretail.com/images_osc/PMpadA3.jpg) \<—(doesn’t give true color of the marker)  
[http://copicmarker.com/shop/images/SketchbookB.jpg](http://copicmarker.com/shop/images/SketchbookB.jpg) \<—(colors appear too dark, not a free flowing paper, does not allow for blending makers well)

Thanks for reading this.
