RE: The darker side of black (was The whiter side of white)

You can also paint the main body in flat black and drybrush with gloss
black
to emphasize the edges of panels. Of course, if you are going to protect
it,
you will have to matt coat it before you highlight.

It does not show up in pictures very well, but under light, in person,
it
can be nice.

Okay, here's the opposite question. How do you do black? Do you paint in
a
very dark blue and then use black for the shadows? Or do you just paint
the
whole figure in black and do a highlight in either some blue shade, a
grey
shade, or a silver shade? Or is there another option?
