Before any ink goes down he photographs his caps and desaturates them in Procreate, so he can see exactly which greywash shade each color matches — no guessing whether a color will sit too dark or too light against the black and grey. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen he builds it. Most of the seminar is Zack at the station, naming what he's using as he goes: three round liner for the edges that need to stay crisp, seven round shader to tighten the nose, eleven mag on its side for eyebrow hairs, and which shade he's dipping into on every pass. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost people hear \"basics\" and think beginner.
