Dry Brushing / Paint Consistency

[Showlen]

What consistency should paint be when dry brushing with acrylics? Would you still go with milk-like consistency or thicker straight out of the bottle?

Thank you!

Ronnie,
if this is for high lighting, then keep your consistency the same.

Darw off a bit more paint them normal, then lightly apply your brush.

That's what I would do.

I wouldn't thicken it, nor go too much thinner, as you don't want a colour shift so close to finishing. Or a wash....

That's how I would go about it, others will use their own methods.
