what do you think?
Distress or not?
(I like the fact, that cigarette ashes is good for something...)
Can you discuss how the ash was used? This is amazing - Great work!
You just smear it on, I'm working on this style now.
Is the ciggy ash is soft enough to not scratch the emulsion if you want to make a clean print later?
it is... if you're carefull.
McCoy: What I do is disgustingly enough to lick the emulsion side on the negative - which makes ig damp but not wet as such - then I apply the ashes and gently smear it on the negative with my fingers.. when dry, the ashes stick to the film rather firmly.
IF you don't like the result, you just rinse the negative in water, and the whole thing goes away, and you'll have a pristine looking negative for new try outs.....
LOL, I love it, you are licking your negatives of nudes and 'degrading' them or you.
Great idea!
Still laughing. Best idea here in a while!
Perfect bar story, I gotta try the licking, the printing and the telling!

It's so impressive it makes me want to start smoking! Can't wait to try it! Thanks.
Not degrading them, honoring them with additional creativity
do you use a filter on the cigarette, for some nude ash?
;-)
