Hmmmm. Interesting. Seems like it's the stretching of the foil from multiple roller passes. I wonder if that could be mitigated by using already adhesive to pop the foil onto something like smooth plexiglass? That might also make the "plate" more protectable, assuming it mitigates the stretching.
Super fun to see the limits of this technique. Seem's the stretching is the biggest issue and might be more to do with the number of prints than the age of the foil? I wonder if you could permanently mount the foil on acrylic to stabilize it if you wanted more out of it?
Perhaps! I also wonder if printing on an etching press might help. Printing by hand, it’s impossible to apply even pressure throughout. A press would still stretch the foil, but maybe it would stretch at first and then stay the same afterwards. Also thickness of foil is s factor… lots of things to try and never enough time!!!

Excellent 😊

Hahahaha! I should've read the comments BEFORE writing mine. I see someone already thought of my approach 11 months before I did!

So cool!
