On the recommendation of a local shop owner, I picked up a bottle of vallejo's Ivory (from the model color range). I used it today and I must say, it has won painting. This is without a doubt the best white color I have ever used/made. It is bright enough to be a vibrant white, but not stark like titanium white. The color is so creamy smooth! If you haven't tried vallejo's ivory yet, well, you should!

I was recommended this on CMON as a white highlight instead of using a pure white. It is what the top painters use.
The advantage of this paint is that when thinned it doesn't become grainy like pure whites. If you so wish, you can mix it with a pure white and it does not lose its consistency.

I finished Galadriel. This is a great color! She is pictured with Denethor because I finished him at the same time.
