Flesh

I've never been good or smooth with flesh.  This model is from Wild West Exodus but I'll use it in TNT.  He has a large area of skin to paint, so I figured I'd use him to learn.  The model is a Native American and I want to match the skin tone as best I can.  I used VMC Beige\Red mixed with VMC Hull Red.  For the first highlight I added a little more Beige/Red.  Then I glazed a very diluted mixture of Reikland Fleshshade and Medium into the recesses. 

Here he is so far:

I'm going to work more on the shadows first then highlights.  So far I think its working out ok.  I don't care about speed for this so this figure will take as long as he needs.

I'll be looking around for inspiration and techniques going forward.
