Hey, really nice !

I remember I loved to draw with such pens

Thank you very much for sharing

Fixed some problems with the last update to the paper generator. Also, added an Effect mode so you can randomly generate paper over a span of frames.

Paper texture is now randomly spun or flipped for more variation

Also better instructions for importing the paper generator FX stack.

moved some of the sketchbook Paper Layer commands into embedded scripts

I tried using an Ultra-Fine Point Sharpie since it would at least produce a strong line. But I found that the ink flowed too quickly, bleeding and spreading if held in one spot and worse, showed through to the other side. I also tried the Pitt Artist Brush Pen on this page, which worked OK but was a thicker line than I like for general sketching. The black ink in the finer-point Pitts seemed paler than the Microns, but it might also be that they resist the sizing on the paper more.
Prismacolor Illustration pens are similar to the Sakura Pigma Micron and Pitt Artist Pensand are very nice and comfortable to hold. But they too performed poorly on the Arches CP. Then I tested my Aurora fountain pen and was delighted to see that it was a pleasure to write and draw with on the Arches CP paper.
