Flexible Triad: Rose Skin Tones

Select a minimum of three colours within the Flexible Triad: a base, a shade, and a highlight. The chosen colours can be either adjacent or spaced out, depending on the level of contrast you would like to achieve. The more spaced out, the greater the contrast.

1. Begin by applying the basecoat of the darkest colour to establish a dark colour in the shadows and recesses of your miniature.
2. Next, apply your midtone colour (the lighter tone within the Flexible Triad). Paint this over all areas, leaving the darkest basecoat colour in the recesses and shadowed areas. Keep repeating this step if you have more than one midtone, going lighter each time, and continue until you’re left with the lightest colour.
3. Lastly, use the lightest colour to highlight the most prominent areas of the model, such as edges and raised surfaces. This will add definition and mimic the look of light catching on the miniature.

Tip: Blend the colours together smoothly to create a seamless transition between each shade. You can adjust the intensity of the colours by layering and blending them as needed. Experiment with different techniques to achieve the desired effect, such as dry brushing or layering thin glazes of paint.
