Paint it Pink

Black undercoat, white drybrush to give more vibrancy to the main colour, which drybrushed on top. Followed by a wash and a highlight drybrush.
Unlike some people, I feel under no obligation to pretend that only one war-gaming scale is true, and that any others 6mm/10mm/15mm/25mm are mistaken; or that I know better than people themselves what is right for them to use. The point is precisely for all war-gamers to decide for themselves.

Black primer, basecoat, pinwash for fabric shadows, highlight. I say "fabric" because I use base, mid, highlight for flesh, metal, and wood.

I don't think it is a real term or not but what I mean is that I target just the specific recessed area or raised edge with a very fine tipped brush. I will sometimes first wash with a heavier loaded brush of the shadow color followed up by a lightly loaded one with a black wash.

What is a pinwash?

Basically it's a wash that is targeted to very specific areas on a model - eg rivets or folds on fabric or something - rather than a wash that covers everything...usually mixed thicker & painted on rather than slopped!

Black undercoat, dry brush white, face first (dwarf flesh dry brush light flesh), basic colours, not too thick so a to get some shading, gloss varnish soft tone(AP) then matt varnish. It's quite quick and looks ok.
