The main thing to get used to is working wet over dry, it's the primary way of using acrylics and any similar paints.


After you've undercoated it's a process of slowly building up to the final colour in successive layers. Since they dry so quickly, and you can speed this up even more by giving it a quick blast with a hairdryer, you can apply layer after layer in quick succession.



Yes, there are numerous other mixes but that's actually one very good way of mixing some darker skin colours. One of my favourite mixes for deep shadows is Burnt Umber with a little grey and a dot of Cad Red Light.
