Still reading the skin Tute but have to say you need a pic of a finished Mr. Columbo for your colour Tute. Everything you say sounds good, but without a pic I have no \'proof\' it works together on a mini.
Back to reading the skin one....
Nice Tute, would prefer to have a pic of the finished mini at the end, even though the skin is done. I would have to pick up some paints to try out your exact scheme. I never considered using my Sanguine base as a flash shader.
Just wondering: most people that use the layering technique start with a darker basecoat and work their way up, skipping the shading step. Do you find your method produces better results?
Since I swapped from Basecoat -> Ink Wash -> Drybrush, to layering, I haven\'t done a shading step, maybe I need to add that back into my repetoir.
