What colors did you use? White, green and fuck it?













Jk they will do just fine.
Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward. Whoever cannot take care of himself without that law is both. For a wounded man shall say to his assailant, "If I live, I will kill you. If I die, you are forgiven." Such is the rule of honor.

Those will hunt just fine. If you ever want to tone down a paint job you can do a "wash". Take raw umber, water it down and brush it on.

Not a dumb one at all but yes. Its in the brown spectrum. Washes are basically taking a dab of acrylic and mixing with water to thin it
out to where its just tinted water.
It can help tone down colors a bit.
Here's a video that explains it.
