Oh, and THANK YOU THANK YOU to all who had disscused ways to calm down and fade the colors. I ended up using a little dark tan in the flat coat, on the upper surfaces, heavier still on the horizontal areas.

Glad it worked out for you! I have always preferred using tans/flesh-tones in fading colors, as opposed to using white. There is no one right or wrong way; I guess it is a simply a matter of personal taste. For me, using white always made it seem "bleachy" or "chalky", as opposed to sun-faded.
Hello, I don't see your pics in abms, just saw the messages in response to your post. Could you repost them? Thanks
