It's really simple. Paint the entire model in its base colours. Flesh in a flesh tone, red armour in red etc.
Then paint on the "dip" which in this case is one of the various quick shades. Paul's using Strong, Stu uses mid or soft. It will leave your models shiney (not in a Firefly sense,) so the important step is to apply an anti-shine coat. Dull-cote is effective.
I assume Paul (question here,) is that using thinned paints over a white undercoat, is to provide a degree of highlight to start with (paint will tint the white, rather than cover it, so when it runs off into recesses, tinting gets lighter on raised areas.) Is that correct? Also another question, is have you tried it with red, and if so does it leave the white pink rather than red?
