Try Highlights using a blending technique instead of drybrushing. Start with your base coat then add litte darker color and do the shadows, the go back to base coat and add lighter color until it looks like material on your clothing that you are wearing. That's hou I judge my clothing on my minuatures, is how my shirt reflects light and shadow. Hoped this helped
hey rookie! your off to a great start. try not to drybrush too much, always add one more highlight everywhere and add more shadows on the blade. This isn't the best place to ask for advice. ask minipainter, you'll get a better opinion (and calls for bigger pictures!) Cheers!
