Cyano over pt/pd on Rives BFK
Wonderful! And an interesting take on vanishing point with the point actually being below the frame. Love it.
 
Great series, Matt! Which cyan are you using? Doing anything between coats?
 
Thanks Thomas and Kerik.
K, I'm using the old school A/B cyano mixture. Nothin special between coats. The cyano layers are needing about 2x the exposure time as the base pt/pd layers though.
Just developing in water bath and wash.
 
nelson, I just use a light table and some "safe release" scotch tape.
Rives BFK is VERY stable and retains almost its exact size for reregistering after the pt/pd print has been made.
I often have to "steam" my other mainstay paper (fabriano artistico) but Rives BFK doesnt need any of that. I've done a bunch of gum over pt/pd prints and even after 3 layers of gum printing on top of the pt/pd print, there usually isn't much issue getting the registration close enough.

I'm NOT using anything fancy to register, no condit pins or the like. Just a light table and visually lining them up.
