gocco frustrations slash the usual

I hadn't been planning on using the gocco to add color to this print. i was going to either keep it as an outline print, or hand color. I did hand color some to test out color combos and see how it looked. I did like some of the hand colored ones, but I wouldn't sell those ones. And the hand colored ones just didn't have the feel that I wanted, so I decided to use the gocco again to add color to the image. I know I went about the process backwards, because I did the outline first and then added the color blocks, so that makes it more difficult, but they are actually looking fairly nice. The problem is that I only had one set of lamps left, and they WILL NOT F-ING WORK! argh! very frustrating. I have 3 masters left, and I had one all aligned to make a screen for the next colors, but the lamps aren't cooperating. Robin and I looked all over the place online and cannot find lamps and masters for a good price. The seller we purchased from in the past has DOUBLED their prices. It is insane. I need to find gocco accessories at a reasonable price so I can finish this print. I was super stoked about how it was coming along, and then gocco troubles! I'll get it figured out I guess, but this is how it is looking for now!
