    Imprinting from condensation
    I need to know how to get an imprint off of a drawing done in condensation on a glass tank. I know this sounds VERY strange, but u guys are use to that, right? I have a snake that draws pictures and I would like to imprint them and save them, maybe even sell them-you know-call it 'Snake Art,' or something. :) Isn't there a way I could do that?

    Thank you,
    Stephanie

    P.S.
    If this crazy idea works out, I promise to give you full credit for any help you provide in our story, lol! :D

    Sounds cool.

    Can you still make out the images when the condensation has dried?

    I wonder if experimenting with a digital camera would be a worthwhile start.

    You could lift the prints with some latent print lifters. Not sure if you know what they are, but they are the plastic things that you peel open and the print will stick to the clear flap of it and then you press the flaps and it closes.

    Another idea would be to use some dusting power, a dusting brush, and then lift it with the print lifting paper and tape. If you do that, then you have an easy clean up so your snake doesn't have to have that powder all of it. From experience, practice with the dusting powder first. You need sooo very little powder and once you get that down, the dusting is actually easy.

    Best of luck to you. Hope anything I said helped or gave you any ideas. If you need more input on it or have questions about anything I said, don't hesitate to ask.
