RE: Dual layer tissue

I think you really need to adjust the top layer just right. You do need to
penetrate past it.

As for making dual layers on a machine the problems multiply. I guess they
multiplies for laydown too.

Subject: Re: [carbon] Dual layer tissue

I have not actually done it, but I have played with the idea of using a dual
coated tissue. The image I thought about using it for would be a close-up
of Rhodedendron flowers (red). My usual thick coating of black for the base
9perhaps a little warmer than usual), then a thin coat of lightly
red-pigmented gelatin on top.

It would probably play hell on the exposure times, but the idea would be to
have the highlights and upper mid-tones have that touch of red.

Another idea would be too have the top coat be blue for ocean scenes (no
white sand in the scene, though!)
