COP3// Etching the DSI Copper Plate

Etching the DSI Copper plate was a long process. Here are a few images of its development. The blue sheet is a photographic copy of my design which will block the acid, so only the copper showing will burn away. The aim here was to ink the design after the etching process was finished however it would have taken a week to dry which is far too close to the deadline. I am happy with the final result, which will be documented later. For now I'm wondering of it would have been better to have kept the blue sheet on. Its looks fairly space age, but doesn't follow the visual identity rules.


Use of black paint to make sure these boarder areas are not burned away by the acid.
