To answer your question the red was done with Andrea Basic Red shaded with Andrea Dark Red and the deepest shadows with black mixed in with the dark red. Roger.

Studying how you paint them, is always good, as it helps me appreciate the finer details of highlights and shadows. good stuff so far, cheers
