RE: Black Cat Carbon Tissue

The advantage is pronounced relief effect (as long as you also carefully
balance pigment amnt. - allowing the exposing light to reach as deep as
it can - but without hardening the tissue right to the bottom). The
disadvantage is long drying times. Also, manufacturing thick tissue
(with light pigment load) is harder than manufacturing think tissue
(with heavy pigment load) - you have to use frames to hold the glop in
place until it sets...

That what comes in my mind quickly and I'm sure there are many other
issues to mention...

ok, my mistake was thinking 0.015. As i wrote, usually i use 0.6 / 0.8
mm. Now what is the the advantage with 1,55 mm? may be because the
"papier tissu" is not so charged in pigment?
