I often get questions from people not sure how to choose their paints for different stages. It's actually pretty simple! And a lot of paint companies have already done the work for you. This video isn't about painting pink skin, it's a more general tutorial on how to use the simple method of using three tones of the same colour to base coat, layer and highlight. If you want to go more advanced, instead of using three paints, you just add another paint as you go further with the highlights! Hope you enjoy the video and learn a little something you can apply to your painting!

The incredible model I used for this tutorial is from Dragon Trappers Lodge who are the very kind sponsers of the video!
