Halo: Angel - a guide to how Pinkuh creates art

Step 11: Making things white without actually making them white.

In this step I go through and I start making the armor white. Why white, you ask? Well, angels have white wings (for the most part - there are a few exceptions). That and holy crap I am sick of sticking Chief in the green armor @_@. Anyway, I start out with FFFEFA. This is a slightly yellowish white. Why yellow? Because we want the armor to feel warm, and yellow is a warm color. The base/shadows are 80707F, which is a cool color comparatively.

From here I pretty much follow steps 8-10.
