- I am slowly learning how to make a full colour print using Printmaker's Friend, which is similar to Gum Bi-chromate printing, minus the dichromate.

beautiful print results. thank you for sharing your process!
I like!
You never cease to amaze me Andy
That is absolutely amazing!!!
Thanks, Stephen!
That’s very inspiring. I would have loved to try this with glass plates and set them about 1/8 of an inch behind each other. With some sort of a backlight.
Fascinating, Andy. Would be interested in seeing how the negs are created. Lovely pic.
I uploaded a video yesterday showing how I use Chartthrob and QTR to make a digital negative. Check it out and let me know if it was helpful! Cheers!
Wow, nice job. You give new meaning to pin registration.
Having taught high school photography myself, I've never had your adventures.........c'mon , first you dont like green fixer, now you dont like pinhole cameras in it....wazz next?😂
😆
I love that way of mixing a black!🙂
reminds me of "Kwik-Print" product from 70s
I would agree! I read up on what little I could find, and Kwik-Print sounds pretty much the same. The only difference is that it's done on a plastic support.
Thank you Andy! I have been wanting to know how tri-color prints are made.
Wow, absolutely stunning results! I printed in gum a few years back and have been itching to get back into printing, might have to give this a try.
Calvin's PMF makes it pretty easy!
@@analogueandy8x10 Certainly looks that way! How would you say it compares in terms of tonal range when printing just three layers? I know it's possible to get a very wide range by using a ton of layers and negatives covering different values, but in your opinion how does it compare to gum when just doing one layer of each?
@@spectrazone tonally, I see no difference, but definitely has a bit more colour saturation.
@@spectrazone it's really fast, too. My longest exposure is 24 seconds! With gum bichromate, the shortest exposure time is 4:30!
@@analogueandy8x10 I see, thank you! Wow, that is quite sensitive.
That's very nice, and the process is interesting, has potential. How did you separate the different colors to make each negative from the digital image? The obvious answer would involve Photoshop, which I'm not adept at.
Yes, in Photoshop. Photoshop has the ability to split into three negatives, one for red, blue, green. Or if you are working in CMYK, then it'll split it into each of those channels.
Thanks Andy. Just curious do you always put down the yellow first?
Usually. The only time blue goes down first is when I use cyanotype for the blue. I'm planning to print this image with cyanotype first in the very near future, and compare them...
Are your negatives in Red Blue Yellow but printed in CMYK?
Printed RGB. CMYK gave me drab results.
