This is a print from the larger butterfly plates, now with added vein definition. I thought that the red paint on the hind wings would give more of a mauve shade, but it didn't and it's bit too pink for my liking.
These are the new tiny printing plates, which fit onto postcard sized paper. I added the veins etc before I coated the plates with shellac and it's definitely easier, as I found that the tool slipped about on the shiny surface of the the larger plates.
A selection of postcards ready to be cut out, although I will make more and wipe off a little less as some of the prints are a little wishy washy.
