If you're going to fail, destroy everything as you go down in flames.  Also, this is why digital art cannot count as printmaking: I dare any digital artist to make a giclee printer do this.  My standing offer: if you can make a giclee printer do this (pics or it didn't happen), I will send you a free etching and a personal note taking back my rash and unfounded statements about the legitimacy of digital art as a fine-art printmaking medium.  But only for the first person who manages it...

Anyhow, I'm going to be consulting my printmaking tomes first thing in the morning, and then this print is going to happen whether or not it wants to cooperate.  I don't care if I've got to get this print drunk on Boone's Farm first, it's going to happen.
