Which White pastel will work on a pink head?

Postby SetsunaKou » Sun Mar 22, 2015 11:02 am

Hi,

I'm hoping to shade a pink vinyl head LIGHTER using white pastels, but wonder if it's even possible? If not, I'll just paint it white, but was thinking that if white pastels actually work, I might go that route.

Any thoughts or advice?

Thanks!

Depending on just how light you want it... You can easily lighten the head by multiple layers of white pastel blushing. Airbrushing would give the most even and quickest coloring, but pastels work in a pinch. Just keep in mind, it's gonna be a lot of layers if you want it really light-white. ^__^

If you want to get it to match natural-color obitsu, I have notes on a paint match somewhere I can look back up if you think you might need it.
