Haha :D
My last one is on Wednesday, but I also have on on Monday and Tuesday! Quite annoying :/ But after that I've got my well-deserved summer break!

I'm from Belgium. I think it's great to see how the Zinks were sent all over the world :)

^ I think so too! but you must have gotten yours pretty early...I only got my zinks on the 18th June! lucky u you got summer hols...Our summer is in December so my hols this semester break are only 3 weeks! *sigh*

Yes I've got a few left, but I'm in the middle of my exams and I'm having so little time to experiment :(

On my first Zink I also pulled off the layers btw, on the bottom right corner »link

Oooh, or what about: pull of a layer, then place it on again but moved a little bit, or flipped, stretched... etc

Could give some cool chromatic aberration kind of effect! :)

^ you may be right...for this particular one I didn't do anything prior to the lift which is why the layer beneath it was pure white...after lifting it it looked like I hadn't done anything to it at all...deliberate fringing eh...hmm...so many possibilities, so little paper...*sigh* Did you get some paper as well? should give it a try...

So this photo shows the top (magenta) layer on a piece of paper?
Imagine doing this with a photo!! :O

Great work, you've got my vote!

^ yeap! sure does! and if you put rest of if back again and leave it...I *think* it produces another layer that can be lifted...so potentially you may be able to do 2 lifts per picture... Its 3am now...will try when I get up...thx for the vote!

Hey Zink Prodigy,
I will see what i can do...
Could you scan this and send it to me... ZinkMaster@Polanoid.net

Oh my god... I can't believe no one commented yet... THIS IS AMAZING!!! This is exactly what we were waiting for!!! See if you can do the next layers too... Hyper4ctive for sure!!!

^ Thanks OJ...or should I say...ZINK MASTER! haha... I found out something else as well...after removing the top layer, I cut the remaining paper in half (both for testing other things...) One didn't turn out right but the other went something like this: After I removed the top magenta layer and cut the remaining one in half, I put one half back in the 3:1 alcohol - lemon solution and proceeded post process the magenta one...then I came upstairs to upload it to Polanoid...I had forgotten all about it and went back down for dinner...then, I noticed something strange... From the remaining paper in the alcohol there formed a NEW layer...this one sort of cloudy blue ( I believe from the 2nd layer I mentioned earlier). Its definitely a LOT thinner than the first one and thinner than emulsion lift transfers... The colour is kind of like what happens when you steam it - a sort of sky blueish + whitish colour. It seemed to be stucj on like packfilm and I got excited and ripped it...I also just finished the last of my watercolour paper (good timing right) and tried to transfer it to normal A4 80gsm paper...Also, being so excited I wasnt thinking straight and didn't wet the paper first...I used a rubber roller (the one for polaroid transfers) to rub it on but it wouldnt stay...I took it off and put some water on the paper and tried again...but by then I'd already ruined it... I have 3 left so will see how it goes next round, haha!
