I've been gone for awhile and just getting back into figure painting again. I would like to do some Samurai figs, but could use some advice for what shades to use for oriental skin tone.
I use primarily acryllics, I'm not sure what the best "brand" is so I have a wide range of brands, with no brand name really dominant. I use some Andrea, Vallejo, Panzer Aces, Citadel, Game Color, and Reaper miniatures paints. Guess you could say I have something of everything.
Any advice for oriental skin tones would be appreciated.
 
Thank you Housecarl for the article on skin tones you were kind enough to pass along to me. It was far more helpful than you could imagine considering the variety of racial skin tones the article encompassed. I know that it will be something that I will continually refer to as my range of figure painting expands over time. Definitely a guide that should be recommended to anyone new to this hobby.
