Im not sure what the blue is really lol.. its charcoal in the creases, then some sort of irridescent blue createx (thanks for that link btw) which is lovely but a bit dark... then the rest of the blue is faskolor metallic blue but also with a some pearl silver mixed in.. hard to explain really ,but a biit of mixing of paints going on which ive forgotten about.

hehe, aye the custard (lol) could have stood a bit more shading / hilites maybe but to be honest i was paranoid about stuffing it up so was playing safe! kept the shading to a minimum, it is there, just barely.!

The Hilites work quite well on yours, are they brushed on ? I tried that with vickys but i couldnt get the paint opaque enough without going over it again and again..
I think I'd need more experience before I can do the shading like on yours, im just scared of knackering it all up.
