I have a theory... which has worked up till now, that Rackham doesn\'t use Flesh colors per se, but they start with a brownish color and keep adding a lighter color. On several of my mini paint jobs, I found that using Cork Brown and adding white gives a type of flesh color. I first noticed this while playing Kingdom Hearts for the PS2, the character\'s skin looks kinda cartoony, but you could see it on the screen and they were only about 2 inches tall, so I though what the heck.. This screen capture of Tarzan best illustrates my point. You can see his skin is brown in comparison with Jane\'s. Hope this helps!

PS. Kingdom Hearts is also great for NMM examples!

thanks chrispy, ill try that, ill have to get myself a copy of kingdom hearts for a bit of nmm research;)

I have spent well over 100 hours of my life on that damn game. A very good call by Chrispy, but potentially very time consuming and I have to admit I was far too busy \'button stabbing\' to notice paint effects. A thoroughly recommended diversion however.:bouncy:

Well, lucky thing is you can go here for screenshots!

My personal favorites:
Sephiroth The one, the only One Winged Angel.
Zero, Jack and Sally May have to try Sally\'s skin as a Mid-Nor flesh..
Yufie and Squall Squall changed his name to Leon in the game.... Why?
Cloud Blonde hair, velvet and NMM tutor!

What I like to do is save the images and use Photshop to see the color progression. I would look around, you never know how much Pooh Bear could help you with blending yellows! :p

Thanks for the link Chrispy..

It looks like a useful resource and I will definitely have a good browse. All your individual \'recommended\' links lead to the home page however. I have found this myself with some sites and I guess it must be part of their security measures.
As it\'s 2.00 am at the moment I will save my browse for tomorrow:bouncy:

No prolemo. I know how hard it is to try and marvel at a giant dragon but also trying to stay alive at the same time! :p
