How To Draw Skin Tones With Colored Pencils

    People portraits take so long to get looking right, lol I will just stick to animals, can be a bit off on the resemblance and its all right. Do that with a person and they don't look just right 😝

    Oh, that ginger root! Best thing in the Prismacolor box, next to the black grape and black cherry. Incredibly useful, when nothing else seems to quite fill the need.

    Love the tips though the skin colors on the portraits you've shown look grayish and pale, like the lack warmth. Might be due to the camera?
