Change your driving style based on the car you drive and the track you race onĮach car comes with different handling, power, strength and agility, and, as a result, you need to change your driving style according to the race type and the care you are driving. All cars are grouped into three different classes, derby, street and race. Your main objective is to stay on track, drive through fences and find shortcuts, trigger traps and make tyre walls explore, barrels and water tanks fly across the road and into other racers.Īs you gain more experience and progress in the game, you’ll unlock and gain access to new, more powerful, faster and tougher cars. Race your way to the finish line and avoid crashing into objects This is a glossary of the printmaking techniques that are used in the works presented on the MATRIX exhibition at David Krut Projects Cape Town.FlatOut 2 is a challenging and entertaining racing game that enables you to engage in street races against fierce racers ready to push you off the road. Intaglio comes from the Italian word intagliare, meaning, “to incise.” In intaglio printing, an image is incised with a pointed tool or “bitten” with acid into a metal plate, usually copper or zinc. The plate is covered with ink and then wiped so that only the incised grooves contain ink.

The plate and a dampened sheet of paper are then run through a press which applies pressure to create the print. Usually the paper sheet is larger than the plate so that the physical impress of the plate edges, or the platemark, shows on the paper. The ink on the print tends to be slightly raised above the surface of the paper.ĭrypoint prints are created by scratching a drawing into a metal plate with a needle or other sharp tool. This technique allows the greatest freedom of line, from the most delicate hairline to the heaviest gash. In drypoint the burr is not scraped away from the surface but stays on the surface of the plate to print a velvety cloud of ink until it is worn away by repeated printings. Drypoint plates (particularly the burr on them) wear more quickly than etched or engraved plates and therefore allow for fewer satisfactory impressions and show far greater differences from first impression to last.Įngraving is a process in which a plate is marked or incised with a tool called a burin. A burin works on a copper plate like a plough on a field. As it is moved across the plate, copper shavings, called burr, are forced to either side of the lines being created and these are usually cleaned from the plate before inking. An engraved line may be deep or fine, has a sharp and clean appearance and tapers to an end. The process is slow and painstaking and generally produces formal-looking results.

An etching begins with a metal plate (originally iron but now usually copper) that has been coated with a waxy substance called a “ground.” The artist creates the composition by drawing through the ground with a stylus to expose the metal. The plate is then immersed in an acid bath which “bites” or chemically dissolves the metal in the exposed lines. For printing the ground is removed, the plate is inked and then wiped clean.
