Can any of my fellow Vallejo Model Color users have suggestions for highlighting Yellow Ochre (913) and Dark Blue Grey (904)? Thanks in advance.
 
How about white and white? :lol:

Seriously white should work just fine to lighten a yellow earth. If the white alone doesn't look right on the 904 maybe try a light mix of white and a brown or white and a skintone.

For (913), try using 819 (Iraqi Sand) or any light sand color. Try to keep the yellowish-sand color in your highlight and you'll be fine. For (904), you have a few choices. You can use a brownish-sandy color (819), you can use flesh, or you could use (905) or (907). Both will give you a cool highlight while the flesh and sand colors will give you a warm color.
