orange flat tint / "appearing through the card" Explanation: Aplat (cf. www.granddictionnaire.com) : flat tint = teinte plate (Terme(s) apparenté(s)= aplat n. m.) Déf. : Teinte passée sur un dessin sans effet d'ombre ou de dégradé, c'est-à-dire teinte dont la densité est régulière. Teinte d'un aplat, c'est-à-dire d'une surface uniformément couverte d'une couleur ou d'une teinte continue. Note : On dit aussi « lavis » s'il s'agit de couleur à l'eau. S'oppose à « teinte dégradée » ((...)). En cartographie, on dit parfois « un aplat » pour teinte plate. Ex. : un aplat de jaune en transparence I am not sure about the right expression. Maybe "in transparency" would be enough. You can also write ...with the pictogram appearing through the card". I hope that helps ! Reference: http://www.granddictionnaire.com |

"showing through"[?] Explanation: For aplat (also: à plat) in Termium I found "tint block" under printing processes. My guess is that the graphic is visible through the block of orange color. |

"solid orange" sounds okay (orange w/ no other colour) or Explanation: "flat orange" (as against 3-dimensional orange or volumetric orange). As for "en transparence", are you sure this is not a pictograph ON TRANSPARENCY? (the medium). Pardon if I'm not too sure myself, but the previous answers have me floored. Practising artist |
