FIFTY SHADES OF...SKIN - How to mix CAUCASIAN flesh tones by ART Tv

[@artsinnovation940]

Lol everyone mad because she didn’t show how to get dark skin tone when clearly the title of the video obviously states “how to mix CAUCASIAN skin tones” . Don’t spread the comments with hate because she did a great job, if you were looking how to mix for darker skin tone then this wasn’t the right video for you, simple just keep looking till you find a helpful tutorial.

Adding greens to the skin tones can make them really realistic.

[@clydejohn5642]

thay really bright green.

[@coverthecanvas4978]

She has yellow and blue in her mix.... yellow and blue make green. Flesh is a mix of red, yellow and blue. You can use orange and blue, green and red, purple and yellow. Then add White. The difference between the combination will lead to the same color with a different color bias. Every flesh tone is created this way even African American tones. Just add less white. I personally don't use straight brown from the tube. That combination makes brown

[@gigi-nk8qs]

Also, pale purple ( and all the colours you can use as a colour concealer)

Fellow (beginner) miniature painters, read here: Want to paint that sergeants head without having to buy 5 pots of paint? All you need is red, blue, yellow and white (plus black, which is always handy but not necessary for making flesh). Be sure to get "true" colors for best results, so for citadel paints it's currently "Evil Sunz Scarlet" for red, "Flash Gitz Yellow" and "Aldorf Guard Blue" (plus "White Scar" for a bright white). You can use the darkened versions (like Khorne or Mephiston Red), but it'll be more difficult and take more white to compensate. Patience is key, you want to play with the colors and see what you get. This video tells you (very well) how to make flesh tones, but it will leave the head looking flat. The easy solution is to get a flesh shade (such as Rekland Fleshshade) and simply apply it. This will get you to tabletop standard. If you want to do it the "right way", it's a lot more complicated. Unfortunately when you're painting miniature flesh, you're using dark to light tones, meaning you have to start with red+blue, not yellow+red like this video does. The aim is to start with a dark brown flesh (base), then add gradually lighter layers to the face or flesh surface until you've got something resembling pale skin, then making a peachy tan color as a final layer (then highlighting with a lighter color). Here's how I do it: 1. Start with Red+Blue to make Violet. It's okay if it seems a bit dark. You can go ahead and close those two pots. 2. Gradually add Yellow until you get a Disgusting Brown color. You'll get there quickly. 3. The goal is to make a Dark Milk Chocolate color - swap between adding SMALL amounts of Yellow and White until you get something resembling that. 4. Base all of the miniature flesh areas of the part you're painting with the Dark Milk chocolate color. 5. Keep lightening the mix with white to get Lighter Browns - You want a Tan ("Camo Brown") color. 6. Use the Tan color and layer it on the part, but keep the previous Brown in the recessed areas. 7. Keep lightening and repeat the layer process once or twice. 8. Keep lightening the mix until you inevitably hit a Sickly Pale Flesh color. At this point you want to revive it with warmth by adding Red and compensating with Yellow. (NOTE if you have a pre-made Orange, it will be easier). 9. Add one final layer of this "Real Flesh"/caucasian/Peachy Tan color. 10. Create highlight colors by adding White to the mix again and using the result on raised areas of the part. On a head that would be the cheek bones, eyebrows, forehead and jaw line. Let's face it, it's a hassle, but if you're strapped for cash like I am, this is how you do it.

[@aislinbrunt2085]

thanks so much. I was looking for information on how to get darker skin tones. Using you techniques but with playing with the amounts of red and burnt umber to use I got some nice mixes for darker tones. I still got to practice my asian since my mixing still suffers from too much yellow but this has really opened up what I can do for others. Thanks so much again!

[@noahhewitt1738]

You need to neutralize colors with their complementary colors. When you started with the orange color you should have neutralized it with blue. And then add white to lighten it.

[@subliminallistenernetherla4995]

Why should you do that?

[@christa1965]

[@reginaldforthright805]

Actually it’s better to neutralize with black and white so that your resulting color mixes with be dull, dead, and lifeless.

[@carolesanchez5700]

Have been browsing for this subject and yours is by far the best for CAUCASIAN skin tones, which was what I was looking for. Don't know why people get so triggered!! Dark skin people of all tones are just as beautiful as caucasians, just look for what you want and stop bringing racial over-sensitivity into every topic that has to do with color! Before you know it we're going to have a problem with tutorials of pink and white flowers!

[@dragonpokemonlover237]

I can't thank you enough for making this, I've just started painting and skin tones have been very difficult

She did a fantastic job of explaining this and showing us how it's done. You could apply this technique to make ANY skin tone, using other colors. Very helpful.

People here complaining about you being racist, are really annoying, but your attitude isn't much better. You seem really passive, I'm sorry if that isn't your intent, but if people say stuff you don't like, ignore them. It's like fighting fire with fire, no need for all that salt. Anyways... , your video was very informative, good job. Would you consider making another with some darker skin tones, it's were I and other eople struggle and your explaining is very easy to follow.

[@mcdon2527]

Thank you!!! Very useful video! I'm a POC and I'm learning how to draw white people and it's why I'm here. All the other can shut up and search for whatever skin tone you're looking for, it's a video for light skin tone!! Imagine someone commenting "why there's no white skin tone? All tone matters!!" to a dark black skin tone color mixing tutorial.

[@Ayumi-km4xi]

Does anyone know how to get darker skin tones? (Black ppl, Brown ppl and yellow/asian ppl)? I'm not mad at the creator of this video for not doing darker tones, this video was really helpful. I was just wondering as I'm a beginner to paint

[@ikizagirl]

add more of the burnt umber

[@raykuykendall1472]

No, it is more complex than that. I'm not an expert, but many darker skinned people have some other underlying cool colors.

I add ultramarine blue to my fresh tints, for warmer, and a cooler blue for cool shadows

[@TerrieJohnson731]

I am happy about this video and your method. I also use white in many mixtures, skin included. It is now as important as any other color on my palette. To get turquoise color, I always got more of what I felt was teal, until I added white! Now it is what I feel is true turquoise ;-) I make Mauve the same way, and I wanted Daniel smith Buff- It is just an off white color. I made it myself, saving money on buying it, and it took me under 2 minutes! I subbed, have a great day!

[@Fantasvale]

Hi Terrie thanks a lot! You mean the buff titanium? Do you use watercolors or other media?

[@TerrieJohnson731]

Yes, lol. I meant Buff Titanium. I am writing a recipe card for my mixes. I am learning watercolor mostly right now, and it is a huge medium...but I am drawing, I love colored pencil, soft pastel, and have acrylics I havent used much yet. I thought I was merely going into art journling/mixed media- then I fell in love with watercolor. I got a nice Van Gogh 20 color set for my birthday, and in a few days I am picking up the Shin Han artist colors. I want to use tube paint and a porceline rectangle palette to force myself into choosing a color palette first ( I am a beginner) and i need ery transparent colors because I am a glazer! By the time I am finished my paintings are much to opaque for my liking. Also I am investing in natural and blended brushes as I had only synthetics which pick up a lot of pigment and not enough water. I guess I am deadly serious about water color but love mixed media art journaling for fun. Tonight I gave myself permission to draw a girl on my best watercolor paper and do her with anything I like. Her floral head dress is in vivid colored pencil. I have the full set of Prismacolor, and they have been sitting while I learn to paint, lol. I hope I answered your question. I am a hermit old lady and write inexhaustibly long comments. Apologies hun! BTW- I found out the turquoise I am after is cerulean blue! I will buy a tube very soon but can make a pastel version, hahaha!

Nice video. Where I can get the example color chart of the people that you have? Also I saw has different numbers I think is like a code color

[@obelusstationery6347]

i feel that for the watercolor, burnt sienna would have been a better alternative for cadmium red, as it is less harsh of an orange/red. As a plus it is also an earth pigment.

[@Chaoticmicah91]

Would cadmuim orange work instead of that warm red? If not I might be able to mix that orange with primary red

[@Fantasvale]

the only problem is that primary red is usually a magenta color that's more similar to a strong pink or a fushia color...
