Recipe for natural leather/skin colour

[RuneBrush]

Just wondering if anybody had a proven paint recipe (preferably using Citadel paints but have P3 menoth white base too) that give a natural leather colour like you get on the reverse side of a pelt. For example:

Although I could try and work it out (reckon bone colour with grey and browns), if somebody has done this previously that would be much better than guess work

i did a similar colour with khemri brown and bleached bone and a little p3 coal black for shade.

Try that! Even if it's not exactly what you want (I'm sure it'll be close) you'll learn a lot by playing around with various mixes in that region; you're going to need a few simple variations of the basic colour anyway if you want a similar mottled look on the skin you're painting.

Thanks both. I ended up going with Khemri Brown to Commando Khaki to Bleached Bone with the odd splash of Devlan Mud in some of the odd recesses. The overall effect is really quite nice and one I'll use again
