I am pretty sure that he uses Ilford Multigrade, but that may have changed.
Toning will vary greatly depending on paper used, so if you are trying to
match a tone, it is best to start will apples to apples. Selenium toning
first will help keep your blacks black. Remember to use a short selenium
bath however as it will start to bleach the highligts of the very silver
that you want to tone later with the sepia or other bleach and toners.
