Feathering is a fine painting technique that helps achieving a subtle transition of colors from light to dark and vice versa. The key is to make avisual blending of colors by applying a succession of feathers semi-transparent layers to the miniature. Each subsequent layer shouldoccupy a smaller area in comparison to the previous one. Feathering is not tricky to master and can give very nice results. First, you need toapply a moderately thick non-transparent layer of one color to the surface you are working with. You can also go with a few thinner layers itis up to you. As a rule, this base color should be as dark as you would want the most shaded parts of the miniature to be. Let the base layerdry well.
