Based. Wetplate is really fun and satisfying, but quite difficult.

Wetplates have comparable grain size to microfilms. They're amazing to look at in person.

The fact that they're only really sensitive to UV makes studio work a major pain in the ass. You can get by with very powerful flashes. 4800ws was okay, but stronger would have been better.

Cadmium free bromo-iodizer, gloves, and a darkroom with good ventilation.

Just so you know, aside from a darkroom being light tight it should have good ventilation as a main priority regardless of what chemistry you're using in there.
