Couple of prints I made for school projects

They're prints I made from the plates I actually etched in.

The GS is a line etching entirely by hand. 15x20" paper


This ferrari wheel is a line etch done by dipping in acid five times for 5 minutes each, total of 25-30 minutes to put in acid only. The rest took like 1 week, including staying and sleeping in the room. :ugh3:


This is the same one, but done with a process called, "Slow Acid" it's called "aqua tinting" which only seeps into the plate slower to get the dark affects and values you see here. This took about 1 week as well, but fairly faster.



Well what do you guys think? I have about 6 proofs for each one of them.

I also have two more to do and they'll be in color and those will be a bitch to do.
I'll post them here as well when I'm done in like three weeks or so.

Here's a couple of tools I mainly use. Etching pen, scraper, and burnisher, of course some steel wool and sandpaper and brushes.

These were taken with my cell so sorry for bad quality pix.

GS Plate

Currently working on right now (PIano with phantom hands playing)

WRX STi, with hands drawing it (Currently working on it right now as well)
