AKA drybrushing, "weathering" and diluted washes to bring out detail in
scale miniatures. You see, when miniatures are filmed, photographed or
seen in real-life, the light particles striking the object are too big
to cast the right-sized reflections and shados to the human eye.

Similarly, this is why models of ships in water often don't "look quite
right". The water molecules and fluid dynamics are still life-sized
while the "ship" is drastically downsized.

Oh wait, did I get that first part right?
