- Worth noticing
- The 38 plates split into five sets; each is built for a named blend mode so its background disappears without masking.
Field notes
The catalog breaks down into four eight-plate sets and a six-plate paper-and-grunge set. Its examples include ISO 100 fine grain, vertical scratches, and a warm leak at the left edge. Three guides connect the assets to practical editing steps, including a Photopea workflow and a blend-mode explanation for black, white, and grey backgrounds.
