If you're doing it the traditional way with wet stuff you might have to experiment with things like sepia, carbon, polysuphide and selenium. Thiourea rends too much yellow to me. Results are very dependent of paper maker. If you're doing it digitally, you can alter the curves by channel or manipulating the colour balance in shadows/midtones/highlights going colder or warmer depending your thoughts. Much better if you do this in an adjustement layer, so you can experiment with several mixes at a glance or choosing how it will mix with the rest of layers. Hope this helps. Any day above ground is a good one. ---------------------------------------------- http://luis.imaginarymagnitude.net
