i am big into science. I am designing a roleplaying world were the monsters are based on science and evolutionary adaptations. So tool use instead of breathing fire kind of stuff.

A technical question: how do you paint with watercolours on Bristol without it warping?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
in my experience it always warps...the way i get it presentable after it dries completely is to bend/manipulate the surface and then flatten it in a weighted book. i imagine it would be even better if you had access to a press.

Hmmm, there's a printmaking studio at school. I'd have to ask the technician for permission/help first.
