Post by: Inkpaduta on August 13, 2020, 04:06:03 AM

Hey,

Been trying to find this and no luck. What companies do Asian flesh skin colors?

If you use Army Painter paints the check out Kevin Dallimore’s recipe in the Northstar magazine as he does the Tong and Koryu Buntai

Fur Brown/Desert Yellow/White or Fur Brown/Tanned Flesh & Desert Yellow/White.

Asians come in pretty much all the colours. Care to be a bit more specific?


Are we talking Chennai or Shanghai?


For South Asians (Indian subcontinent) I have just tried out Foundry's "Dusky Flesh" triad on some Sikh lads and I am quite pleased with it. I also bought the "Oriental Flesh" triad, but haven't actually had a chance to use it yet, unfortunately.

Plynkes,

You are right. I am looking to do some Japanese. Thanks for the help so far everyone.

VMC 860 Medium Fleshtone with a brown wash and then highlighted with base colour and VMC 847 Dark Sand works okay.

I use that or VMC 843 Cork Brown / VCM 876 Brown Sand with a brown wash and then, as above, highlighted with base colour and VMC 847 Dark Sand.

Further highlights can use a pale flesh colour or even VMC 837 Pale Sand.

Hope this is helpful.

Foundry Oriental Flesh triad works pretty well...

What if I got my pot of caucasian style skin colour and mixed a bit of it with some brown paint?

Caucasian flesh tone followed by Antelope Brown ink wash gives a lovely golden skin tone.
The ink is a Daler-Rowney one. Sepia gives a more Middle Eastern flesh tone
