It was a little bit heavier on the pigment than I intended, but it looks like I got a fairly good range of tones, although it skips a step on the lighter end. I didn't realize I could get such a dark black with Payne's gray, heh. Again...I'm not really going for the one-coat print, so I guess I could cut back on the pigment...but wouldn't I lose my lighter tones?
