Review: Just what ineeded
Review: I think I may have already reviewed this so I will keep this brief. It was my first time using drafting film and it was satisfyingly thick - like strong tracing paper - and so smooth. It worked like a dream with coloured pencils and I was thrilled with the results. An easy 5 star product and I’m hooked!
