Human skin notes

base: dheneb stone

shades: warlock purple and charadon granite?

tone: bhaal red and devlan mud + matt medium

highlights: two ish layers of watered dheneb + increasing amounts of white.  (areas to focus upon are the brow, tip of the nose, tops of the cheeks and the tip of the chin.)

application:  In order to replicate the translucent qualities of real human skin, the shades and highlights are best applied in very thin layers. Thin the paint until it is almost was like in consistency, get some on your brush, then dab the side of the brush lightly against a tissue a few times until most of the moisture is removed and then apply.
