We only have 14 hours to save the Earth

So it's the end of the year, and I finally updated Wasted Minds!  I'll be updating Mondays only for the next few weeks, since I still have a ton of other stuff to do, but it's a start.

A couple months ago, I was out buying bristol boards, and they didn't have my regular brand (Strathmore, smooth, 100 lb.), so I figured I would just buy Canson instead.  Big mistake (probably a worse mistake than when I bought vellum finish instead of smooth).  The paper doesn't hold ink for shit.  After erasing, my inks were faded so bad that I had to re-ink some of it.  Ugh.




It's kind of hard to tell how bad it was from the scan.  :/  At first I thought it was just with my brush pens and Microns, but then it was fading pretty bad with india ink as well.  So don't buy Canson paper.  That is my sage advice.  =D

Have a happy New Year everybody.
