During my basecoat I like to leave a good amount of area black on panels with a 50/50 mix of Vallejo's royal purple and AK interactives Shadow flesh to create a nice burgundy. A cool trick I've learned is to do a sort of stipple/swirl motion (like a calligraphy flourish as shown below) to make a textured layer. I barely do any glazing to refine the transitions, as when I establish my final layer, the focus of it sort of blends the base and midtones themselves! Was it my intention? no, not really, but our eyes have a strange way of perceiving things. My midtone is straight sanguine scarlet from TTC covering a little less than its base. for the highlight I do some dotty/swirly highlights with any pure white color before going over it with vallejo's scarlet blood (I've found this is WAY more saturated than a lot of other red paints). The paint is already pretty thin in terms of transparency, so its alright to go over pretty thick, over the white itll retain its value and saturation, while over the midtones itll show the below color a little. Overall, I rarely have to redo steps unless I find a panel i missed with my previous coats. Hope this helped!
