This is my mix for a purple toned fleshtone.
The colours used are:
- Abaddon Black (GW)
- Catachan Green (GW – old colour)
- Liche Purple (GW – old colour)
- Basic Skintone (Vallejo)
- Light Flesh (Vallejo)
I created the basecoat by mixing liche purple and basic skintone, in a 1:4 mix.
After that I startd highlighting by adding basic
skintone to the mix, in several steps until I reached almost a pure basic skintone. After that I added some light flesh to the mix for the
highest highlights, about 50/50 mix. The shades were painted by adding a little bit of catachan green
to the basic mix, and a little extra liche purple. Then a final shadow
was created by adding just the slightest bit of black to the previous
shadow colour.
You can see an example of this mix used here on the skin of the female:
