Hecate, care to share with us what kind of paints do you use for chinese skin color? (was that politically incorrect? I don't know anymore...)

Sure!  I use a Game Color's Beige Red and Reaper's Buckskin Pale mix then varying levels of shades (by mixing with black) and highlights (by mixing with white)

Hope that helps :)

Thanks a bunch! Could you recommend a Vallejo or Citadel paint to replace the Buckskin Pale? Those are the only brands available in my neck of the woods (Hungary :)

Also being a huge fan of HK martial art films this is exactly the kind of project I have been working on in the past 6 months, but still couldn't find a satisfactory combination of paints for painting chinese skin :)

I don't know a name for an alternative, but this is the color --



I did look at the conversion chart for Vallejo and you may want to check out MC Flat Yellow or GC Gold Yellow, though its hard to tell looking on a monitor :)

I hope that helps and good luck!

A couple of new additions to my "Big Trouble in Miniature China" collection; the heroes, Bruce and Yun. 

Hope you like them!

These are really neat, thanks for sharing.

I really love those scowling monks.

So fantastic. The Black Lotus and the Ninjas are my favourite - what a league for Pulp Alley! I've seen a few Kung-Fu movies and, I have to be honest, I think those ninjas are about to enter a world of hurt!
