Halftone Silkscreen Print


  After printing 7-8 colors on my silkscreen book (which I will post fully soon), I wanted to see if I can get away with printing the next ones using CMYK halftones. This way there are only 4 colors- Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black.


    It was a great idea in theory, since it was less work printing. But, man, registering the halftones are a pain! The process does give a different look with the print, though.


    I used an old digital illustration (featuring the War Sadhu) to test it out. Right now, I'm sketching out the new prints, but I haven't decided which way I'm gonna print them- halftones or solid colors.

Book. Done.


Finally got my book done! Woot woot. I'll post the pages soon.

 

This is all the books finally printed and cut down. Preparing to staple down with a saddle stapler... A very long and grueling process.
