Personally, I am not in favour of going back to traditional names for paints...

Ouch!

But if we're talking about odd names, why is there this consistent use of the word 'flesh' instead of 'skin' in the wargames world? Who ever uses the word 'flesh' in real life in this context? Moisturising flesh cream anyone? Flesh cancer?

It's just weird...

Cos it's as close as the average GW reared gamer is ever going to get to the fleshpots of this world. Either that or the good folk at Foundry are big fans of Warhol films.

Me, I like Vallejo, they use the term skin, as in Sunny Skin tone.
