I tested this paper tonight by doing a comparison with this and Arches paper. I did lots of techniques on both papers simultaneously. Same amount of paint, same brushes, same everything. Both papers worked more or less the same. Same bleeds, same blending, same density. The only difference I found was the texture/pattern of the paper showed through a little bit on the cheaper paper whilst the Arches was more or less smooth. So, I think I'll continue to use this paper.
