Same method, But used "photo paper"​ and acetone (Nail Polish) rubbing by spoon. Perfect result...!!​

DAMAR VARNISH

[@trevoradams8675]

@@edumaldonado5059 I find it best 1 part damar to 4 parts acetone.

Would I be able to use clear transparancy film from amazon like the ones used for projectors with a laser jet printer and the fluid? Would that work?

[@sddd42000]

No that will not work.

[@manoomunicnent1773]

I suspect the transfer fluid is a weak pale shellac solution or a weak glycerine solution. Inkjet transparency film is i believe coated with glycerine to create a surface for ink to adhere to but its not as good as paper so the ink can be easily shifted from the transparency surface.

Dominic Kent you are a freaking genius

[@manoomunicnent1773]

@@sddd42000 I use a weak shellac solution which when dry i rough up with 1000grit it will then make a surface which will take pencil drawing on.

Again you are a true genius......bet it’s hard to be around yourself

[@a.i.5673]

you can do that with any varnish - no need to buy expensive stuff- but of course, this is another selling stuff video like 80% of youtube vids

[@trevoradams8675]

Damar varnish is really cheap, tried some others that didnt do anything. Needs to be sticky like tree sap :)
