Paper Recommendation?
I have decided for my first build on return to paper model making will be Dewey by UHU02
I would like to enlarge this to A3 (i have access to a A3 laser printer) but was wondering what weight paper to use? I have some nice 190gsm matt, would this be suitable or is it a bit thin? Thanks RH

It is probably a bit thin. I use 199 gsm for much smaller models.
You could go a couple routes. You can laminate a second page on the back allowing for tabs, or you could do a reinforcement on the inside. Or you could get heavier paper... I'd probably go the lamination route on this bigger build. I would also give the pages a quick light coat of a sealer/ clear coat. This protects the print, but also gives a little extra stiffness
