Really like this guy, he does watercolors that are the dark side of Audubon.

He worked with a master printmaker named, Peter Petengill at Wingate Studio. They handle their multiplate a little bit different-as a two person job, but it looks like a really effective registration trick. The print shown above is I believe a six color job.

Rather than leaving the paper and felts down while it printed, the other person held the paper and felts back and gradually lowered it to the plate (making sure it was lined up right) as it was run through the press.
