-Soft and Semi-sharp highlights can be applied by using various erasers. -The Bard Parker Scalpel Blade handle with a no. 15 blade is a great tool for scratching back specular highlights. The rounded edge of the blade allows you vary the width and shape of the highlights as well. Scratch back highlights should be the final step in the drawing process. Dust that is spread over scratched on highlights will stain the area and will not be easily repaired. -Highlights can also be brushed on using white gouache.
