in classic and baroque art, a lot of artist used to make flesh tone just with raw and burnt sienna + white, and lacca di garanza (dark magenta) to reinforce shadow in the end. And they built those flesh tone on muddy green (verdaccio) as a primer, precisily to emulate the green tone of green skin... ehm sorry, green tone of caucasian skin. Yes.

It wasn't until this video, specifically when you made a comment about why you chose to explain this concept the way you did, that I realised why this channel is so good. This channel is fantastic even just based on the information in your videos, but what sets it apart is your ability to craft a "journey" for the viewer to go on, to give us the best possible chance of retaining these concepts. You're an excellent teacher, and I think that the thought and care you put into structuring the way the concepts are presented in these videos makes them a phenomenal resource. Thanks for making such quality content!

You can follow recipes and instruction for everything you do and get great results ...of someone else’s work. But to truly be good at something and make it your own you need to UNDERSTAND why the recipes work and the reason instructions are in the order they are. There is a difference in having ability and knowledge. Thanks Marco for helping to increase the knowledge of the how and especially the WHY in miniature painting. I have definitely gained some knowledge with your videos. Looking forward to more 😁

A lot of people do that in every arena of life nowadays: watch videos...endless videos. They obtain KNOWLEDGE, and then talk about it like experts, but rarely put it into practice themselves to develop the ABILITY. From miniature painting, to video games, to car repair; they watch countless hours of videos but then lack the motivation to actually try it, practice it, and make it a skill. All the while acting like critics to others.

@@MarcoFrisoniNJM Hi Marco. Thank you for your work. I progressed quickly in miniature painting thanks to you. Your concepts and ideas helps a lot and push to try out them. How would you create cold skin tone? For Vampires, painting cursed city atm but my Crimson court is waiting as I am still trying out to solve that cold/dead bluish skin tone?

Marco, my man! You are the best! I'm going to start using an airbrush after seeing you work.

For anyone who prefers to use artists' colours: Yellow Ochre + Burnt Sienna (+white) This give you the basis of skin colours from pale Northern European down to quite dark Afro-Caribbean

2 years late but thanks for this great resource!

Lovely lesson, Sir.

I appreciate your presentation and the way you bring up the various colors. I wanted to point out that in classical color theory, “basic” Caucasian skin tone is 1 vermillion, 3 yellow ochre and a bit of blue for desaturation, the quantities can then be varied to cover Asian and Mediterranean skin tones (but not darker skins). I know these are not primaries, but it’s pretty much the reason ochre and vermillion are found in most artist boxes.

well Im sitting here in Athens in my underwear, life support is on (aircondition) and here is Marco sporting a beanie in the middle of the summer!!! This is madness!!! I love the video and i would like to see more on the temperature zones of the face.

The absolute best video tutorial anywhere on painting skin tone👌 Thank you

I'm a professional 3D sculptor getting back into painting after many, many years(I painted 100s back in the 90s WFB days), and I've watched pretty much all of the top mini painting channels. and you, my friend, are without doubt the truest and most artistically knowledgeable artist I've seen painting minis. Your understanding of artistic principles is excellent.

Such a fantastic video full of neceasary information. Love all your work, blessing us with knowledge. Ive been searching high and low for good videos on doing african brown skin tones, so wouls love to see you take that on.

I spent about 20 minutes to wright the comment and i didn't know what to say. Now i know. Marco! Thank you for your videos and tutorials. After each video i want to take my brush and paint, paint and paint again. As u said in your video "Practice! Practice! Practice!" Thank you, Marco! Tanto grazie! You are the best painter.

One thing I've always had trouble with is painting UN-natural or uncommon skin tones, notably super deathly pale stuff for vampires or leucistic/albino colorations; it's a pain in the butt to get some of the color zones and subtleties of the face right in that sort of scheme, but mixing for the undertone instead of super thin washes/glazes to add in those colors is a useful trick I haven't fully considered or explored. This is useful, thank you Marco.

I have been hoping you would go in depth on skin tones at some point! So excited for the other videos!!

Somehow you made a simple explanation of the topic I struggled with for quite some time, that's just amazing!

Marco, you're a treasure! Don't stop making such quality content!!!

I really don't want to buy $50-100 in paints to get all the various skin tones but will if I have to. With any luck, this will work for me. Thanks, buddy!

Thank you. Once again Marco, a superbly delivered informative piece.

Love that you cover color theory in great detail and that you use large variety of tools outside of the Vallejo and Citadel ranges.

Brilliant! Mille grazie, Marco, I'm going to have a ball mixing paints for my maid miniatures tonight yay :)

Dude! This is some excellent knowledge. Thanks so much for dropping it on us. Brilliant resource.

One thing that stumps me is that I've read that highlights should be mixed from the next color "up" the color wheel plus white, and shadows should be mixed with the opposite color. I'd love to see a video on how to figure out what colors to add in what proportion to create highlights and shadows.

So good! I've always worked digitally and have set out to learn how to translate my work into the physical world. Your stuff is super helpful in that endeavor! Keep em coming!

Nice, just saw it now. This is amazing, thank you so much for your work Marco! :)

Teach on, maestro!

Its thanks to videos like these that made me pick up and stick with the primaries and black and white, i love these vids and its so, so helpful for miniature painting. Now just to get the courage to try non metallic metals haha. Thank you for these vids!

When working with artist paints (oils or acrylics) a good starting point for skin tones is yellow oxide with red oxide. This gives you a nice desaturated orange which you can then modulate with ultramarine blue (the real one, not the GW colour) and chromium green oxide. For more vibrancy, start with cadmium yellow and cadmium red. These both come in various tones, so pick according to your target colour.

Hehe, this process reminds me also of programming, when I have to interpolate and/or change some colors in a scene. Knowing the RGB (or CMY) components really helps to know what you are doing and what needs to be modified to obtain the desired result.

Great video, so extrapolating from the shades on the palette , you could utilise any of those for warhammer minis for example using cold tones for dead cold flesh, to orange and reddish to glowing flesh etc? If you utilise the basics as you showed you could then get the correct progressions for shading etc
