Reestablishing the midtones and highlights.

January 27, 2019

Once the wash was dry I started redoing the midtones. I simply used my previous base mix of 3/4 Menoth White Base and 1/3 Menoth White Highlight. I thinned the mix with more water than usual so that it would blend more easily with the tones underneath. Once all that was done, I did another pass with my previous paint mix but with more Menoth White Highlight added. Unfortunately, I cannot give you a precise ratio as I mainly did things by eye at this stage. Where I felt that it needed more highlights I added more MWH in the mix and did a final pass.

Unfortunately, like you can see, the previous layers are way too dark adding unwanted contrast to the mini. Once everything was done it wasn’t too apparent but I learned from my mistake and my second batch of minis are better balanced.
