Rookie Mistake

So test screen printing went both well and not so well.

Lightning bolt/scar/rune screen




And the test pieces that turn out really well. (On unaltered book covers so I printed these before the amendments.)


And then 2 mistakes here. First, the screen wasn't completely cleaned (I forgot the soap) and I forgot to mask off the top of the screen.

Nice spot vanish line right across the top.


And you can barely see the lighting bolt. Only if you have it turned to the light constantly.

So, lesson learned today: Wash your screen correctly, and tape up the spare gaps.

Tonight the covers are printed along with the bookmarks. (And I'm going to try and see if I can get another print done seeing as how I broke this one.)
