Potential new silver cardstock

[murphyaa]

I was wandering through the paper section of my local WalMart when I came across this:

It comes in four metallic colors:

The sheets have a sheen that makes them look metallic.

Downsides:
-65lb weight
-I could only find packs of 24, which gives you 6 sheets of each color.

My thoughts are using the chalice silver for large aircraft, and the white silver for smaller military planes. Still deciding on uses for the other colors.

Once I pick an appropriate model, (I'm thinking the B-45 Tornado) I'll see how it handles an inkjet printer and being turned into a model.

Hi Aaron,

Try a search for Inkjet Silver Photo Paper:
Please note the miss spelling on this search brought up some shiny stuff:





Many different brands of PHOTO Paper. Some heavy weight /not so Heavy weight. Found that the use of different color paper helps with the photos. You can expect to pay premium dollars for most of them.

Check out the offering from RED RIVER-remember them? Metallic Photo Paper | Red River Paper this is just one....
