No problem, I thought I already had! Wondered why I saw no progress on the Doctor/Song picture...

Ha, I see! I'm considering to restart it. I learned something more about skin colour which might improve the picture exceedingly.

I don't know what paint you used but could you give his barnet an inky wash? 'Barnet Fair'=hair.

I use watercolour - with inky you mean... "blue"? or "dark"?

It probably wouldn't work then, might destabilise what was already painted if it's watercolour. I only do black and white so have a bottle of Quink and another I wash the brush off in. I give a wash with the lightly inky water behind a figure to make it stand out but thought his hair would look less pure white with a wash. Shadows can be done like this but the transparent watercolour would have to be applied after.

Yes, his hair was way too white, so I'd give it a darker wash - agreed! I'll try out how to do that with the background. Dried watercolour washes can be painted over... not too wet, though

As long as it's on quality paper. Ever used Bristol Card?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No I haven't used that one, I'm currently using Hahnemuehle or Canson, they have excellent water colour paper.

Sorry about the hiatus-computer problems! I've rarely used colour. I think Bristol card is just best for ink sketches.
