Too Much Pigment?!

Since the Revolutionary War continues on in the actions of Dr. Ph. Martin Hydrus and Winsor & Newton Artists Colour, I decided I would see what I could do with paint from the other side of the pond, since their product has long been my staple. The painting depicted above is done with Payne's Grey, Indigo, Prussian Blue, Cobalt Blue (Deep), & French Ultramarine. There is still some craculature... so I wonder if this is just the result of too much pigment in one area? Perhaps a switch in paper is the next step? Things to think about. Happy Monday Y'all!
