Applied Illustration: Stock Tests

The two stocks I have tested are the antique off-white and the more grey counterpart. 
I noticed that the printer actually discoloured the paper, and after a chat with the technicians it appeared that the heating element of the printer was responsible. The discolouration is most noticeable with the lighter paper.
The lighter paper also seems to reject black ink to some extent, causing it to flake and distort.

The darker paper suits my purpose better, as their is far less discolouration. The addition of white pencil detailing seems to work great on this stock also.
