Everything you wanted to know about ethnic skintones.

Yep, excellent reference. I painted a Reaper Spartan warrior using that guide and the skin tones were excellent.

Remember, if the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.

Burnt and/or raw sienna, Naples yellow, and touch of cadmium orange
(also little bit of titanium white) it is enough 90% of all human skin.

I paint faces and skin colors with artists oils. They are easy to blend and have a long working time compared to other mediums.
