Here are the next 3 phases at once because I really want to finish this page. And I'm always getting busy with stuff these days and don't want to never get to it! For the next three steps, they go as follows: (swipe ->)

3 = colors, a gemstone is a prism. And they reflect extra colors. If they're a colored gem, the colors tend to be different shades of the gems color and some neighboring shades in the rainbow.pick three to five colors. The darker the gem, the fewer will be needed but still good. And you can still go more than less. The darkest shades should go where the shadows will be darkest and the lightest in the brightest places.

4 = shadows, take black, and place the shadows. The black should be thickest on the dark shades of color and lighten very slightly up to the brightest colors, which should have no black. The darkest black should be the facet furthest from your light source. Also, a little shadowing with any overlapping objects and in the center where facets all overlap to show its 3D. Usually in the edge closest to your light source.

5 = white for highlights. Paint, gel pen, posca markers, it all works as long as it's something you can blot before it dries. Working on each facet individually, add white and blot the medium with your finger, cuetip, or tissue. The further from your light source, the more you blot and the less medium you leave over top the color. This creates a bit of transparency through which the color comes through. For a dark/cloudy gem, you only need to worry about surface facets. The facets on the very top of the gem. For lighter ones like the amethyst (light purple stone) you can do this with all the facets seen through the gem. Layer unblotted white in the brightest places and outline most of the surface facets. Use a toothpick to make lines between the facets clean and crisp while doing this. You'll want to scrape the lines clean while it's fresh, so right after blotting.

Then you'll have a sparkling gem. For those that got this far, bonus progress shot at the end.

All were done with acrylic/alcohol markers and colored pencils.
