What colors mixed make skin color?

Answer 1

Well, with pencil color I just color with the orange lightly or until I get the shade of peach I want. For acryllics, I would just use the color peach and water it down a bit. For watercolor, just plain old peach. For oil, same thing as acryllic. For oil pastels, just color lightly with the peach. And sorry to use the color name "peach" so often, but that's what the color's called, so. And I think that's pretty much it, or so that's all I've heard of.

Answer 2

Skin colour is the most difficult colour to recreate, mix together a very light yellow and pink. Add very small amounts of pink into the yellow, until you have your desired shade. This takes alot of trial and error so be patient.

Edited: It all depends on what ethnicity you are trying to recreate. Africans can have light brown to black, almost blue skin while Swedes will tend to have more pale pink to almost white skin. Asians are a very light to medium tan where Brazilians can range from light tan to pinkish-white to black. There are so many different color combinations you're not really wrong for using any color other than green. Unless the person's sick...

Answer 3

There are a lot of different skin colors....

Yellow ochre and alizarine crimson make one, or

burnt siena and white. For darker skin colors, add burnt umber.

It's best to make swatches, and hold them to your subject's face.

also very helpful: a green earth underpainting. A skin color painted over that becomes lively by the contrast.
