Vallejo Face & Skin Tones Shortcuts

Here you can see a useful shortcuts for painting almost any Flesh & Skin Tone you wish using just 11 paints from Vallejo Acrylics. 8 hues from Model Color as Base Flesh Tones to start and 3 from Panzer Aces for making the Shadows and Highlights. The combination are endless! Check the video, make your own experiments and let me know. This is something like a teaser for my upcoming book on Flesh & Skin Tones Mixes. Here we have used the Model Color Set Face & Skin Tones 70.124 and the Flesh Tones from Panzer Aces (Base Flesh 341, Highlight Flesh 342 & Shadows Flesh 343). Of course do not forget to Use the magical medium Glaze Medium 73.596. Please have in mind that all hues can be purchased also individually. More information can be found at www.vallejoacrylics.com or at your favorite shop and dealer. A lot of articles on painting scale models, dioramas, vignettes and figures have been published in Mr Black Publications Editions (www.mrblackpublications.com)

Me for the base skin color i use the orange brown (981).For the high light tones i mix for the first 2 tones the light brown (929).After for the 10 tones I use the sunny skin tone (845) and I close with another 2 tones with light flesh (928).For the shadows I mix in base color the red leather (818).For African skin tone I use the burnt umber(941).I think the brown rose(803) is a very good choice for Indians. What is your opinion?
