Trying to showcase a magazine layout in a way that feels tangible — most mockups out there look like 3D renders with plastic pages. I want something that shows off texture, lighting, and that real print vibe. Any favorites?

Totally hear you. I recently used this magazine mockup https://www.ls.graphics/mockups/magazine-mockup set and it nailed that printed-paper aesthetic. The lighting is natural, shadows are subtle, and pages have just the right amount of curve and grain. You can showcase cover spreads, inner pages, even partial flips — all super easy to customize. The final results feel like editorial photography, not digital renders, which made a huge difference for a client presentation.
