I’ve just received through the post a large print of a panorama I stitched and ‘improved’ with Photoshop.
It’s fine, except that I was not careful enough in putting some ‘sky’ behind some trees. There are lots of quite obvious small white areas around the tree branches/leaves.
How can I cover these areas in pale blue colour? I’ve tried my old school crayons without success – they don’t seem to mark the surface at all. Is there some type of touch up pencil specially for this?

Thanks,

Steve

Assuming that what you have is a "photographic" print, then the product that you want is Kodak Flexichrome [SP?] Colors. These should still be available at large photographic retailers, or maybe from Calumet (www.calumetphoto.com). If you have a computer generated print (dye-sub, inkjet, color laser, etc.) the dye will depend on what type of printer, ink and stock were used.

I believe this is an inkjet print on semi-glossy paper. The company concerned use a 44" Epson printer with Epson UltraChrome pigment based inks.

Steve,
You might want to contact Epson and ask them what dyes you should use. It could just be that the Flexichrome dyes would work fine, as they are designed to work on glossy, or matte photographic papers, though they match the EP2 dyes as I recall. Epson might also have a source for matching dyes that I would never have heard of.

Good luck,
Hunt
