Thanks.
Not sure what the method I used is called.
A friend with much more large scale military modeling experience recommended it as a fast way to paint vehicles/guns.

It involves taking your base color and shading it down a couple of steps (Tamiya Dark Yellow and Flat Earth Mix 60/40).
Then filing in the panels with the finish color (straight Tamiya Dark Yellow).

The blackline and edge highlight (Vallejo Desert Yellow and Sand on the highest points).
He actually recommended a black ink “pin wash”.
I prefer the Technical pen “black line” method.
