Seven screens: blue, dk brown, red, green, tan, lt gray, black.

here's with blue alone:


with positive for the brown laid over it:

Here's the green. No transparency, just opaque green.
I mixed it under flourescent lights- so now that I see it under tungsten it's much brighter than I thought... most of it gets printed over.

Now the real fun begins. Color 5 is Iron Oxide Yellow with a dollop of white , and lots of transparent base.
