Yeah! Don't go and hang your posters with Rusty nails,now.
Hi Chris,
Thanks for the kind words, much appreciated!
There is an aura around each nail hole. it is more visible what I mean on the "Lady in the Lake" poster.
That's permanent change in the paper/fibre which make colours/sheen look a bit different and of course the flash from the camera.
It was easier to mask/hide that on The busy areas on the LITL poster.
Solid backgrounds are always a bit trickier.
The only way to really hide that would be air brushing which I did on The stain between "Reckoning and the NSFGE
I didn't want to go silly with to much work ( air brushing large area ) and keep it as conservative as possible.
Overall, I though I found a good balance.
All the best,
dario.
