Renee, I am not sure I understand how you would "darken your halftones."

A halftone is created on a surface when the light meets the shadow. It is a mixture of both.

Therefore,

THE VALUE OF THE HALFTONE CANNOT BE AS DARK AS THE SHADOW.

and also,

THE VALUE OF THE HALFTONE CANNOT BE AS LIGHT AS THE LIGHT.

(In order to get this all to happen you will need to clearly define your light and your shadows.)
