is this paper translucent with fibers? could be used for collage or mixed media techniques?

No fibers, it is also smooth and thin and flimsy. reminds me of tracing paper - but less sheer and solid white. i thought it would be stiffer- at least as stiff as all purpose paper or construction paper. and i did want some texture and fibers, but not so much. i use it for baking cookies (absorbs oil) since i can't use it for the intended project :(

I bought it to make a mixed media lantern. I bought it because if the smooth surface and sturdiness . I also bought it because I wanted to write on it. I think it would be great for detail work. Not as absorbent as other types of watercolor paper.

No. I think it just HAS to be transparent for best results- use transparency paper instead of tracing paper, that will work fine. :)

No. The matted pages are just like nicer black construction paper that divides the pages. The film of the sleeves is glossy of course. I think it works out better for matted work (ex: I use it for my drawings and dry media). I have used it in the past to submit a portfolio to school, where I used printed photos and it worked out fine. I don't know what you're using it for, but if you wanted to put photos in here, it would work just like a photo album.

No it is not transparent but has a difinite pattern , but one might be able to make out opaque images.

The panels have translucent material, I believe it's rice paper. It let's some light through but you can't see through it, except maybe slightly at the joints.

No sir. This product dries to a uniform light gray when properly mixed. It is neither opaque nor translucent.

The paper is somewhat like parchment paper. It has slight lines that aid in folding accuracy, but that don't mar the look. It is great for paper projects!

No. This is not transparent. Also, I didn't like this product. I found it very difficult to work with.

It is very, very thin and very good for certain types of origami. I primarily use it for tessellations. It is unforgiving to fold (creases and any wrinkles are always visible) but for tessellations you can back light them and the transparency produces a very nice effect. Happy Folding did a review of glassine for origami use that you should check out. Also, this is the type of paper shown on the cover of window star and sun catcher origami books available here on Amazon.

The original is the only type I have used so far, but I have successfully used it to make collage pieces that incorporated fabric and glass "gems" in the designs. Sorry I can't offer more help

The paper does not have a wax or poly coating. It is a paper product we use for children's art projects

I bought this paper to make shoji screens. It's about the same thickness and opacity as printer paper, so you might see silhouettes through it but nothing more than that.

Hi Cindy,I don't know, I've never tried using it for that purpose. Might it be better to laminate the paper.

I haven't printed on a transparency. However the prints I have done are very opaque in the black spectrum so it's fair to assume that it would print well on film.

It's a thick paper like with fiber. It can easily be ripped if not handled with care. But it's actually really nice.

I think so...it is pretty much standard thickness tissue paper. Not super thin, not super thick. Its like the standard tissue paper a store would use to wrap fragile items.
