Turning a Negative Into a Positive- C-41 Film Developed as Slides

Experiment time! I used Flic Film Elektra (aka aerocolor iv) and Kodak Ultramax to see how different films would react to this method. I used the same HC-100 and C-41 recipe that works for E6. To be honest, this is the best of the entire two rolls- and the more overexposed ones definitely worked better. Scanning was a pain- the emulsion was very inconsistent using this technique. The base colour was different from frame to frame, so scanning as positives was the only way. There are a couple repeats in this album to show how different scanner settings can make a totally different image. I don't know if I'll do this again anytime soon, But if you care to try I'd definitely overexpose one stop.
