      Yeah, I didn’t even try to do smooth white for this guy. Pure trickery.

      Zenithal prime white over grey; All over Apothecary White Contrast; All over Drakenhof Nightshade (read: blue) Shade; Really heavy “dry brush” Reaper Ghost White (read, slightly blue white); More normal dry brush Reaper Solid White for the edges.

      Ideally all the different tones work together to convince you that it is solid white with natural shadows.

        I tried apothecary white contrast over white scar primer and it came out super grey, didn’t read white at all. This is what I ended up with after a lot of fiddling, but it was a pain in the ass.
