I had to share my screen as it was slim pickings for what was left but I just masked off the part I wasn't using. Firstly I tried printing all the notes at once in one colour to check that all of them worked and nothing needed to be re exposed. I then commenced with printing my experiments but the screen began to get clogged up, I had to clean the whole thing and wait for it to dry. This process alone took longer than 30 minutes which, I decided was too long to wait each time I wanted to print a note if I wanted to get a good 8 done on different stock. I took the method of masking the screen off after I had printed with each note separately without cleaning the screen until the very end because it would save so much time.
These are some of the outcomes I produced the stock that seemed to work the best for the set to be taken as they were designed to be in a series were the transparent ones. I particularly liked the frosted plastic stock I used but as you layered it up it would start to lose detail. The white plastic stock felt nice and I could see it being used as a futuristic design as most countries notes nowadays are turning towards a plastic banknote, the only issue with this stock was that it becomes creased very easily. My most favoured stock was the acetate it managed to do exactly what I wanted from my designs. Lining the designs up behind one another produced a very pleasing outcome as if all the planets were aligned with the Sun.
