Looks very nice man, but isnt that basicly a highlight and not a actual modulation. Just wondering. I actually use the exact method you describe but i dont do Modulation. Your method looks more realistic IMO.

Hi, I think it is in fact a modulation makinfg the trasition form one extreme of the colour to the other with a gradation by applying an airbrushed filter that increases as it aproaches the lightest extreme. Sorry for my english, I´m not sure if I have explained myself right.

Cheers
