[Alt-photo] ALT- Lithophane, Wax Molding of Gelatin Relief and Contact Print with Wax Relief

[Mustafa Umut Sarac]

Hello ,

I am thinking to reach a higher quality with Darwin the processes. I was
researching woodburytype , lithophane and carbon and found a hybrid way.

I am thinking to contact print a 6x17cms negative on to dichromated gelatin
and obtain a relief like carbon. Than pour or press wax on to it , get a
wax block and than contact print with that wax block on to paper.

Does it work and how can I engineer the whole process ?

I want a hand carving wax relief and better result than the negative to
contact print route.

Thank you,
