I was trying to go with a semigloss to gloss finish with this one. Started to want some contrast and ended up with this ugly thing. Went crazy with the black toner and mixed up a brown that looks like peanut butter.  Very frustrating. Need some help with colors. Thinking about starting all over. Anybody have some suggestions. I already know I messed it up royally, so be sensitive with the comments. Lost some more hair on this one Icon_smile
