gang i have an assignment that requires me to work on cheap paperboard paper. two questions
- how bad of an idea is it to use acrylic paint on cheap paperboard paper
- if i do use acrylic paint how do i transport the finished piece? if i roll it up it's going to crack yeah? i dont have a portfolio big enough

@codl the acrylic paint I've worked with is a) pretty wet and b) kinda flexible, so your paper might get wavy but it should not crack immediately if you don't roll it too tight

@codl just do some test pieces tbh

@noiob yeah. i only have one sheet of paperboard paper to work with but i can probably find some similarly thin paper to test with
