Hello,
My name is Merc and I recently decided to try and make some Ferrotypes. I am starting with a digital image, then printing large positives onto overhead film transparencies, then laying them onto a dry plate tintype to expose it. So far it has worked well. I am getting better and better at pouring and making the images do what I want. I wanted to get on here to find a few tips and maybe give a few out. I have been keeping a small blog f my progress and gallery of my work at my website:

Just click 'Photography' and have a look! See you in the forums...
