I made these some time ago and thought that they might be of benefit for anyone trying to assess where to set proofing levels and what the black capabilities are of a paper and ink combination. Just resize if you want, print them out, and read the last discernible rgb value and that's the limit of that paper ink combo. These are good for those "who need large value samples to see them better". At least that was my problem.

You did a great job. All shades can be best utilised for charcoal painting. I love pop art canvas more these days as they give a bright and vibrant look because of the bright colors used.
