How'd you do that then?
Is it a true tintype? or printed onto metal via a printer?
or do you make a neg and project onto a poured plate.
I'd love to know.

Keep up the great work,
Tony

Hi Tony,

I create a restored negative and then use my enlarger to expose the individual plate. It is still a true hand poured wet collodion plate. Instead of using a camera to capture the image, I use an enlarger to project. Thanks for the feedback!

Jen
