Making a Mess Printing
Actually surprisingly I didn't make that much of a mess, besides getting paint all over my hands :p
Wanted to see if the lino needed any more carving before I printed it with ink, so out came the gelliplate. The above is a print pulled from the plate after I put the lino down on it, and the below is a rough print from the lino after I put it on the gelliplate and it grabbed the paint off of it.
Don't think it needs any more carving, if anything I probably should have left more on the wooden part of the ship so it looked more wooden.

Using the gelli-plate could get interesting with this one--looks great.
