... and the negs are FUNKIEEEE to say the least!
Looks almost like a reversed cream coloured pencil/chalkish drawing! Both negs look kinda super dense!
I exposed at ISO 12 for the 'correct' EV, and souped two water pre-soaked (2-3 mins) sheets in Roddie 1:150 starting at 18 deg for 18 mins with a finishing temp of 21.5 deg, then used the Ilford aroma-less stop and normal Ilford fixer. 5 slow inversions every minute. I used a Paterson system 4 tank and just put the film sheets curled emulsion side inwards. The negs look very evenly developed.
I'm wondering what went wrong ... should I try a 1:200 Roddie dilution and keep everything the same, or shoot st say ISO 18 or 25 and develop with Roddie at 1:200?
I'll try and scan the negs later and see what results I get.
