Hi everyone. Okay, I've been experimenting a little with the bulino technique, and I have a big question. I'm not sure how well I can explain this, but I'll try.
Under certain lighting, the image shows up dark against the lightness of the background. Yay! That's good, right? But under other lighting (this being most of the time, unless I line it up *just* right) the image is negative-- the engraved areas look light and the un-engraved background looks dark.
Does that mean I'm doing it wrong? Or is that just how it works?
Hmmm.
