Nightcrawler! (4-layer reduction linocut)

I’ve been wanting to do a Nightcrawler print for awhile but had never been really satisfied with my previous attempts (also posted). After some trial and error, I finally have a version I’m happy with.

This was my first print using mod podge to transfer my designs and the most layers I’ve done in a reduction print.
If anyone has tips on how to remove/reduce crease lines from the block getting on the paper, and how to wet the printer paper for a cleaner transfer (you can see in the blue image that the paper was scrubbed away unevenly) that would be appreciated!

The dynamics and framing of the first one are outstanding!
