hey,
there are a few things which i could recommend. if you go to the art supply
store and get acrylic inks they work pretty well and come in a shitload of
colors. acrylic air brush paints are also good and come in translucent and
opaque varieties also in a number of colors. the old school method is to
use aniline dies which are very colorfast and vibrant. as dies they
penetrate the emulsion rather than sit on top of it. you can order them
from wood working websites (and probably others as well). the problem is
they are carcinogenic so be sure and use caution and gloves when using. the
important thing is to find something which will be pliable and bend as it
goes from the reel to the gate to the reel again without cracking/and or
coming off. as far as resists go, harry smith used vaseline, and i've used
rubber cement alot. i've also heard you can use wax and nail polish. hope
this helps.
