Contrast, Contrast, Contrast
I went over all the highlights with a long, fine brush, dipping straight from my tube of Titanium White. I wanted the whites as white as I could, especially any hair that happened to be overlapping a dark, shadowy area. I also did the opposite by darkening the very darks from my tube of Ivory Black. Any brown hairs that were sticking out and catching the light were painted in a lovely, clean golden colour. Finished. I hope Sophie's owner likes it.
