how do you color skin tones?

[cindi]

Here's an ATC I drew and colored with prisma pencils

I used peach for the base, and shaded all over with Sienna Brown, violet for the darker shadows and highlighted with cream. Hope this helps. I can do a a tutorial on my blog if you want.

wow Renu! this is fab! I love the depth and highlites you have achieved! yes please do a tutorail, and if you don't mind would you add it to the stamp shack tutorials?? it would be a great resource!

I use that I Like Markers blog turtorial that Daria posted earlier in this thread and have done both dark skin tones and native American and had them look pretty good.

That is a cute stamp Kelli, who makes it

It's by Penny Black. The actual image has wings, though, however, I cut them off and used Prima flowers for the wings.

I also like to use the metallic crayola (there is a rosy color in the pack) that is good for parts of skin...gives them a sunkissed look. I use it a lot to color my housemouse feet, cheeks, nose and hands. I also use it for native american skin coloring. Use it very lightly and blend with gamsol.

I am using SKIN WHITE Copic now, but I think I have also used the pale peach Prisma pencil too.

I'll have a very bright pink. (Skin color)

[Canadian, eh]

I colour using a pink-tone or flesh-tone and then I use a bright pink, yes bright pink, and rub on the cheeks and knuckles of the hands. Once blended, it looks just like a real person.
