Hi, for my Rainy Mountain Charlie I found that Vallejo Orange Brown (70971) makes a great base ( if easier to find Citadel Ratskin Flesh is a close match). I varied the tones with Andrea Pinky Flesh ( AC52) And Dark Flesh (AC10) Vallejo Mahogany Sand (70846) and the 2nd Base Color from the Andrea Flesh Set. Andrea light flesh (AC9) is good for highlights. I'll try and post a picture of my bust which is still a work in progress so you can see the effects. On my iPhone so hopefully this will work.

Native American skin has a lot of varying colours as they inhabited the whole U.S. The plains Indians were very dark. and the woodland Indians are very light as the lived in the woods in New York and Pennsylvania. Bob Knee's Book has several colour formula's but is out of print and very hard to get.
