Yeah. I tried out that paper for the Steampunk dragon and this one, and then went "NOPE." I'm probably going to have to throw the whole pad out, it's just terrible, terrible paper. Fortunately I have probably half a dozen pads of various papers, including watercolor paper, so I've been using that the last few days.



I may eventually go in and clean up the paper texture on this one, because it's not that noticeable in person, but I didn't have the time to do it before uploading.
