Re: tri-color gum at last



Even more impressive then.  That is a very neutral and dark black.
I've resorted to using cyanotype for the very reason that I did not
think I could get blacks like that with 3 primary color gum coats.  I
better get back to work on that!

Can I pester you some more?  What blues did you use?  What kind of negs?
