Yesterday I procured a dozen more transparencies, and then started turnign them into actual cyanotypes. And what I learned: “art” more often than not turns into “meh.” Line drawings come out great, but paintings… not so much. The NERVA from the very first batch is indeed pretty awesome, but others are pretty hit and miss.

I had planned to procure another dozen or so today, but circumstances prevented me from heading out, so I’ll try again tomorrow. And when I’ve got those up and running, I’ll officially open ’em up for sales. I’ll mail them flat in large padded envelopes, with just a fixed postage fee for up to a dozen prints… $6 US/Canada, $12 elsewhere. A bit pricey, but that’s basically what it amounts to. So it’d be cheaper to sell more at once than one at a time, so I want to have a fair number for y’all to pick from.

The Convair VTOL jet and the Mercury capsule are, IMO, the clear winners from the latest batch.
