I found only 21 pictures, mostly of animals, plus some fractal stars. In flickr, it is usually referred to as Leather, rather than Golden River. Especially models without multiple layer or tiny fingers will benefit most from it. But its great texture, the unique look you can get with it and the way it can be shaped to will, it is a wonderful choice for 3D animals and modulars. With 80gsm, this paper is in-between: too thin for tessellations, too thick for complex. Shaping the petals was easy and the result was satisfying. Folds are sharp, although a little difficult to reverse. Golden River is slightly too thick to be suitable for complex, but for this rose, without many overlapping layers, it was good. Ynon found the paper to be strong and durable. Test results Tessellation Pineapple tessellation by Ilan Garibi, 35×35cm
(109.1cm × 78.8cm, delivery within Japan only). Price group: Moderate - fine folding - for showing in a monthly meeting. In comparison to the other papers we tested, Golden River scored average. The results, 116 and 50, are double of Biotope.
Bending Resistance: This section rates the amount of force you need to apply to get a sharp crease and how strong the paper is while being curved. It can hold 9.7 kg before snapping, stretching by 4.4 cm (20% less than Biotope). In our tests, Golden River was about 50% better than Biotope, which is surprising. Tensile Strength: We refer here to the maximum stress the paper can undergo while being stretched or pulled. Forgiveness: Reversing a fold is done effortlessly. Creases, when sharpened, tend to stay still and the paper jumps into place when changing from a preliminary fold to a waterbomb base, staying relatively flat. Memory: The paper has an extremely good memory. During folding, we did have some problems with the paper tearing.
Golden River scored 400 with the grain and 504 against the grain in the tearing machine.
Aging and Wear and Tear: This paper scores averagely, just like Biotope in our last review. It is worth noting that the texture particularly of the lighter shades tends to disappear in shots. Use your light smartly and you can make great images. Photogenic: The matt finish and the textured surface provide are a very good starting point. The paper is almost completely opaque and the color, while solid, isn't even: you can see the grain direction. It is a bit rough to the touch and has a matt finish. One side is embossed with long, random grooves. Texture: In my opinion this is one of the best features of this paper! It is leather-like skin-like.
While the paper is suitable for coloring, it loses its unique texture in the process. A 175mm sheet expanded by 1mm lengthwise. Paper Coloring or Colorability: The paper curled just a little when applying acrylic paint.sells 10 shades: brown, light brown, green, red, gray, blue, red wine, beige, white, and ocher. Colors: Takeo produces 19 different colors.
