writing stuff down is so useful though. I took the time last night after this test was finished to write down the process for everything but the beard (which I'll switch up for each dwarf/batch of dwarves) so that for the next batch it's just sit down and paint.
That said, I mostly agree with you around mixing, even if here the armour trim is a custom colour (50/50 leadbelcher and brass scorpion, with a 4/1ish mix of stormhost silver and brass scorpion for highlights)
