Castleking, I bow down to you!  You got to enter your prints at SGIA and give Anderson Studios a run for there money.  Thats all I can say.

Castleking, that Inspired print is what everyone wants to pull off before they retire/die.  So I guess you can retire and/or die now if ya want.

 I hope somebody genuinely appreciated that beside a bunch of other printers.

damn can you even see a 4% dot at 85lpi with out a loupe?

Hi Castle King.
I am interested in what emulsion you are using to be able to hold that percentage if you don't mind sharing. We are losing dots (acceptable amount) anything over 65lpi.
Thanks,

I need to speak up on all the prints lately, fabulous stuff. 

Castle, wow!  That's some super fine stuff, I told Rick this morning that it might be the best print I've ever seen from a picture, both of them.  We would struggle with something like that for a while but you probably nailed it fairly quickly I assume.  What type of exposure unit do you use?  Bulb specs specifically?

This job took us about 1.5 hours to get nailed. We changed pms colors a few times before we were 100% happy with the print. The next time we run it we'll have it ready in under 30 minutes. We use a NuArc Trilight 6,000 W unit. The bulb is metal halide.
