I have yet to master making a digital negative. I can't get the toner dense enough with the one laser printer I have access to, and my inkjet doesn't work with transparencies. In the meantime, I've been doing photograms and contact printing medium format negatives.
@@RickLeMon A trick I've heard of is to print the same digital negative two times and stack them on top of each other, this should help with the toner density issue. Hope that helps!
This is really helpful! I actually like the wiggly edges and I purposefully do them. It’s fun to give different textures edges by painting the solution on with different types of brushes or sponges, letting the solution drip or splash, etc. anywhere the solution is, it will develop. So, you can basically draw with the solution. And that adds a whole new layer of excitement!
What mistakes have you made before in Cyanotype printing?
