Hand-coloring Ambrotypes?

[bob carnie]

I'm shooting Ambrotypes directly in the camera, so the full colour subject comes out in monochrome. Nothing digital involved.

Ok , my workflow would not apply in this situation. For what its worth we use The Wet Print pigments with water use a brush to add colour to our work or highlight colour but I think I mentioned
this in an above post.

Hand coloring an Ambrotype: Wouldn't that be a little like reverse painting on glass . . .like a clock face.

Pretty much, but with a translucent image in front of the pigments.
