A third video in a series, using the CHIBA process, to demonstrates how to make safe carbon transfer prints without the use of bichromates/dichromates.This video shows how to make the glop, the tissue and how to size watercolor paper. The technique is similar to the one used in the dichromate carbon transfer.
Here's a list of the ingredients needed to make 500ml of glop:
1- 40 gr of Unflavored Gelatin
2- 500 ml of distilled water
3- 25 gr of sugar
4- 20 ml of isopropyl alcohol (optional)
5- 10 gr of black India ink.
For sizing:
1- 50% PVA size mixed with 50% water, you don't need to mix too much.
2- A foam roller.
In the next video we'll sensitize paper and make some safe carbon transfer prints.
