Activation Pt. 2

A couple Saturdays ago my friend Castro and I got permission to print some personal projects at Lure Design Inc. I showed you on my last Activation post which robots I would be printing next, and Metal Ember (the oriental dragon, not expecting you to know names), was going to be next on the list, being the first robot I drew I felt that it should be the next one printed.

I burned both screens first thing that morning.

Then after the first pull I realized that I had left the film under the screen, I wanted to hit myself (I did get it pretty nicely registered though!), but that was a little blunder compared to what I figured out when I was doing a few more pulls.  I burned the screen backwards!  Luckily, I managed to burn BOTH screens backwards, so I was still able to get a limited edition of some prints.

I had purchased a jar of red Permaset Supercover ink for this, but I didn’t want to waste it on a misprint, so I made a couple prints on green, with a little blue mixed in.  I’m calling it the Corrupt Jade Edition.  It is an Edition of 5.

The next Saturday I made sure I burned Metal Ember correctly:

Red Permaset is really, really bright, like a computer screen, I was very happy with the results:

But not only was I printing Metal Ember, but Missile Breath as well:

I was still giddy about the red Permaset, so I made a limited red edition of Missile Breath:

I should have a sneak peak of what I’m working on soon.  You should follow Umbrapenumbra on twitter (’tis me), I like doing quick little sneak peaks on there.  Until next time!

A post of firsts.

This is my first REAL post on this blog yay!  Photoshop World inspired me to make a blog.  I still have to work out a few more things, but I’ll start rolling with what I’ve got for now.

Metal Ember

So as I’ve been saying recently, I’m starting up a robot series.  I’m not sure how many will be in the series total, but I have an idea.  I’ve named the first in the series: Metal Ember (I WILL fix the Kanji). Continue reading
