Here's a little "trick" to make the facial features on HO people stand out....some of them have great expressions on their faces which you can't see until this is done. <br />1. For Caucausians or Orientals after the skin tone paint is dry very very gently rub the facial area with a #2 pencil. <br />2. For Black people or other very dark skined people use a very light grey colored pencil. I like to use Prismacolor Pencils which are available at art supply stores. <br />3. Be very "sparing" with the pencil when you do this otherwise it just comes out looking like a dirty face. What you will be trying to do is creating a shadow effect on the facial area...Vic
