I prefer Delta Ceramcote Dark Flesh, myself. I use it straight and as a mix (usually with Apple Barrel Flesh and Medium Flesh, or with Delta Ceramcote Fleshtone, which is very pale.) There's usually a drop of the DC Dark Flesh in almost every fleshtone mix I whip up; I swear by it that much. For dark skin, I like Apple Barrel Chocolate Bar (now known as Chocolate, since they retooled the line.) |

I am a fan of FW Artists Acrylic Ink, in Flesh, Dark Umber, and so on. Very opaque and have a 4 "*" permanence. |

The only flesh paints I have any faith in are by Games Workshop. |

I can't really say. Most of my (future) flesh tones have been based on some of Doc Rob's mixtures, along with a few of my own. If possible, I try to use different fleshtones, browns (such as Apple Barrel's Chocolate [Bar], Brown Oxide, and Toffee), and maybe white -- if not pale enough -- to mix skintones. My goal -- if planning a custom of an existing Joe/Cobra figure -- is to try to match that figure's original Hasbro-given skintone (so far, I've successfully matched  , and have come close to  ). If doing an original character, I can choose to match an existing Hasbro-made skintone, or mix the colors I have to see if I come up with one that works by myself. I'm still working on a choice Native American skintone, but I like the one I've developed so far.-- Cybertronian.  P.S.: If you want an "ashy" (moisture-deprived) African-American skintone, try to match 1991's Heavy Duty v1. Being from Chicago, I guess they were trying to go for a "doesn't sunbathe often" look. Down South, we of color tend to have both "winter" and "summer" skintones. (or at the very least, a "you can see which arm faces the outside window when driving" skintone.) |

elf and dwarf flesh from the citadel stuff workes great. I use the dark flesh with a little bit of brown for a dark AFAM flesh tone. And i have some model master flat flesh for the pale or to mix as well. |
