I really wanted to put a title in foil using letterpress printing on the cover of my handmade zine.

Letterpress inks are mixed with base colors such as ultramarine, crimson, grass, fluorescent pink, and white.
Depending on the type of plate, the type of paper, and its thickness, the relief blemishes, the depth of the debossing, and the sharpness of the lines vary, which is a fresh surprise every time. I enjoy printing while matching each plate to the different expressions.

Printing in the Shin-eisha workspace

💬Comments

I had always wanted to print the illustrations I drew using letterpress printing, and thanks to my connection with Shin-eisha, I was able to make this dream come true.
Because they are made by hand, the strength of the lines varies from piece to piece, and I really liked that subtle feel.

Since it was my first time printing at home, I used a variety of papers. I thought I could use thick paper to create the uneven texture that is unique to letterpress printing, but I learned that drawing paper, which can also be used for illustrations, is more likely to be indented than I expected, which is a learning experience.

Printing in large quantities is surprisingly tidy, so it's probably best to order it, but it was perfect for trying out variations or making small batches. In the future, I'd like to try two- and three-color printing.

This is a copperplate calligraphy font characterized by thin and thick lines and flowing curves.

In order to give the letters a textured look, we used thick handmade paper and the copper plate was made to be 1.5mm thick instead of 1.0mm.

I wanted to print a gradient of colors, so I watched Shin-eisha's YouTube videos in advance to get advice on how to apply the ink.

I was also happy that I was able to make a cute card by using letterpress printing and stamping the letters on business card sized paper.

Printing in India

💬Comments

The color changes considerably depending on the ratio of black and brown ink, so I tried to create a color that I liked.

The degree of indentation varies depending on the paper, so we chose the paper quality that is best suited for letterpress printing.
