Yeah. I\'ve been looking for a good Dwarf flesh tone tutorial. But no one seems to do that anymore. GW use to have a technique back in the early 90\'s. But I never bought the books. :(
I didn\'t care about technique back then. I just wanted to blow stuff up. lol

I think thats more than adequate for a slayer! The flesh is really nice and clean without the gradiant between the tones being too sharp.

Tanned flesh and Dwarf flesh work well together because they are both based on red (as far as I know!) and so work well in tandem. Elf flesh is of course your indispensable flesh highlight for anything!:)

PS. Post it up and I\'ll give it a 7 at least!

That looks quite good enough for a regiment level model to me. A unit of thise would be very handsome indeed.:bouncy::flip:

Id go with what you have here,but for an extra detail give the noses some very thin red washes.

yep, and add some very thin flesh Wash glazes inbetween the layers helps to give the colour a solid, healthy tone. i\'m actually working on a skintones article for a major gaming magazine(no, not harbinger this time, you figure it out), only to be printed in the UK edition though...sorry..... :( Maybe if they put it online at a certain point, i\'ll link
