Heres a good example of how discharge can be more than just soft; but more vibrant and visually appealing. This is a 45 line halftone fade using just two screens of DC no underbase. This fadewould be sloppy and the dots would be more apparent if this was executed traditionally.

That's real clean Tony... I thought it was split fountain till I zoomed in on it.
Very impressive!

Thanks Gil but was stupid easy. The camera flash didn't quite convey how bright it is but I used the Sericol flos right out of the bucket.
And you're right it was engineered to simulate a split fount with consistency on large runs.

Amazing!

The only thing I can see is on "THE" it looks a little faded on the edge. Is that on purpose or is it the camera or did it not get saturated in that area?

That was the first test print and the ink did not clear perfectly. When stopping for lunch etc always throw a few scraps on ahead of thew run to get things running smoothly

Very cool. I can't wait to get my new-to-me used gas dryer installed so I can run my wb stuff at a non-painful speed! There are times when wb and discharge could REALLY make a job easy if they dryer can keep up!

It`s work like yours that make me wonder why I still mainly use palstisol instead of waterbased and discharge inks.
What was the mesh count on those screens?
