Achieving scales

For achieving the scales on my model i didn't want to use anything that would give too much texture as i didn't want it to take away from the texture in my moulds, so i experimented with putting a pair of fishnet tights onto the skin, and then using super colour and a sponge i then pushed the product over the top of the tights. I was really pleased with the overall effect, as i feel it has created the right two dimensional look, and also allows me to layer colour.
