Hmmm... I'm no DeafNala (he could give you an ADVANCED tutorial Just Kidding) but here is a Quick rundown of what I do. Its quick & dirty... easy.
  1. Paint the face of the lighter flesh tone you want to use.
  2. Ink (or wash) the face. This will make the face become a darker tone, with all the crevices detailed.
  3. Wait for it to dry.
  4. Drybrush with a medium flesh tone.
  5. Drybrush with a light flesh tone.
  6. Paint eyes.
The results will amaze you... of course, practice, practice, practice! Some examples...

Thanks Mordheimer!

It's not the BEST skin I've ever made, but looks cool for a fist time with a new technique. I'll apply it again with the scouts!

Thanks man!

What?!? no pics? lol

Like I told you... its a quick & dirty technique. it will not win you a Golden Demon, but will allow your models to go from blah! to pretty nice... way above table quality... and from time to time you get one that will be a real wow!

Very Happy

Yeah, tell me about it. My camera stopped working a long time ago. My brother SHOULD help me, but the lazy git won't come over to take a few shots with his fancy pants camera. Sad

I'll try with my cellphone, but don't expect much.

Take it easy! Very Happy I got my camera 'operational' again and I'm stating to take picture of everything we got. It's not much, nor it's oh-so-great, but it's passable...
