This too is the hammer! I like the way you push the underpainting back, but still let it shimmer through - truly old master technique!
You say it is oil, but perhaps you use acryl as underpainting? I spent some time with Benedetto Fellin a few years back at his place in Hungary, and that is how he works. Acrylic underpainting and oil glazes over top.
