RE: What are the advantages of using Cyanotype as the first layer fortri-color gum prints? Paper Problems...

Thanks for the test, I will post my patterns made on silky smooth Cot320
paper later. The results you got are concordant to what I was
expecting...

About platinum: I'm totally sure that it may show better resolution than
Cyanotype using the same negative, printed on the same paper. My guess
is: the resolution will be on par with Cyanotype. Will try and see it
later (I'm about to start to calibrate Ziatype - does it count as pt/pd
;)? - on Cot320)

Thanks to all,
Loris.

For those who are interested,

I have scanned two tonal palettes, one cyanotype and one gum thalo blue.

Both were done on the same exact paper with the same exact size (glut).
Both were done on the bumpiest paper I use--Artistico cold press paper.

...

Hence, the paper and negative DO influence detail but so does the
process.
In fact, if you scan the tiny targets of a platinum print, you will see
detail even sharper than these two processes.
