I’m interested in doing comics and would like to use the same papers that professionals use. What products do you recommend?
Professional comic artists and graphic novel illustrators use Strathmore® Bristol and Watercolor papers for their finished pieces. Our Bristol sheets are available in smooth/plate and vellum surfaces. The smooth surfaces in our 300 and 400 Series and the plate finish in our 500 Series are ideal for detailed work when using pen and ink, airbrush or marker. Vellum in all three series has a toothy finish and is suited for pencil and light washes. However, neither surface is recommended for traditional watercolor techniques.
With comic artists in mind, we recently introduced a new line of Sequential Art Surfaces. We are offering our same bestselling bristols to consumers in convenient sizes to fit the comic, cartoon and graphic novel industry. We are also introducing a new Semi-Smooth Bristol surface, which is lightly textured.
Our new Illustration Board for Wet Media is recommended for artists who prefer to use traditional watercolor techniques. This new board is designed to accept all illustration media, and can be used for light washes up to wet on wet applications.
