[@gatema]

what kind of paper is the recommended for inking? or what paper do you use ?

[@alphonsodunn]

gatema Smooth, thick paper is best for ink but just about any medium-heavy weight paper will do. You can get bristol board/paper, illustration board/paper, hot press watercolor paper, heavy weight light to medium textured drawing or multimedia paper

[@forrestgibson8073]

LOL, great ending.
