The W/N Permanent Rose sounds like an interesting color. Is it transparent?

Scott, thank you so much for your help!
I am in real trouble, I know, I think I will work on a safe ground and go opaque. How could I think could get it right at the first attempt?
Don't worry, your explanation was very clear but there are a lot of variables involved that are impossible to understand if you cannot phisically demonstrate. How transparent the glaze, how dark the darks, how to apply the glaze without streakes...

I will try to focus on the darks and lights, painting opaquely, trying to achieve the volume, and learn from my mistakes...
Michele, I didn't use it for glazing as it has such a strong tinting power.
I tried it opaque with ochre and viridian: very powerful combinations!
Here are the two photo I an working from
