nanoshi i made this chart of how i get different effects from the same color. in this example the color is primary red. try mixing different highlight colors to any base color to get nice sheens. my favorite as you can see from my previous posts is to use obj color black highlight color whatever at 100% to get that pretty satin finish.

bluebeard taught me alot about mixing colors in poser
don't know if it hepls you but i thought i'd share :0)
