Maybe so, lately my favorite paper is 80 lb text/118 gsm Canson XL Pen & Ink art paper. I get the impression that most people on here use "digital"/printer paper/cover stock, when printing from digital plans? Will give the Pitt pens a go.

Really recommend Canson Pen & Ink paper for 1/100ish models. That paper has decent whiteness, especially considering it's an art paper, and it is smooth enough that it doesn't feather inkjet ink the way that textured art papers (which is most art papers) do. Meanwhile the Canson Pen & Ink paper is as just stiff as the same weight of cover stock while being much more resilient against shaping and glue moisture, a joy to work with. The durability is especially important for the glider conversions that I make. I do have to trim the width of each sheet to fit my printer, a very minor inconvenience.
