Great Paper for my Graphite Drawings
This drawing paper is great for beginner artists and professionals alike. The paper quality is amazing. I personally use this paper with all of my graphite drawings. The pigments blend beautifully on it and the feel of the paper itself feels very nice. I have not tried any other mediums with this paper yet, as I am mostly a graphite artist. I imagine that this would also work well for colored pencils or charcoal. This paper is not meant for any wet medium as it will ripple. The paper weight itself is perfect for dry medias.

Packaging cause damage
Great paper, but arrived bent & dents in paper that can't be flattened. Love the paper, but disappointed in the packaging. 😬

Great quality paper for fine art projects
Although a bit pricey this is great quality paper. When I first saw it I was afraid it was a bit tan but comparing it to another paper it was indeed white. It has a very nice smooth texture that is great for blending for hyper realistic detail and erasability . Definitely nice thick quality paper. I will buy again after I decide which organ to sell ! :))

Use for Commissioned Drawings
The paper makes all the difference when you're drawing, especially black and white pencil portraits. This Bristol is great. I feel like I can really create depth to my drawings with this. The blackest blacks ranging to the lightest lights. I previously used a different brand and I felt as though I couldn't really lay down the dark layers as well. My package arrived completely safe and without damage. I use this for my commissioned drawings

This is Bristol Smooth, not Bristol Plate.
The paper is nice, but the title is (at this time) misleading. I did submit a note to Amazon about it, but the title says it is Bristol Plate, but it is actually Bristol Smooth. The quality is nice, but it was not what I thought I was purchasing. Again, the paper is great (for graphite work, which is what I do) but I wanted to point out to others that the paper is a smooth surface, not plate.

A favorite
Smooth, white, thick paper. Good for finished drawings. Amazing with ink as it absorbs evenly without any bleed.
