Sunny skin tone by Vallejo is probably a great midtone if you want to go for pale. Some red and purple additions for your shadows and you should be set

Use white basecoat for the pale skin 🎨 thin down your flesh color to paint and patiently build up the tone you preferred.

So Keigo here about a minute or two in sets his pallate, a lot of scale 75 paints, and some ak paints, like light flesh. He mixes more and more light flesh with his other paints as he goes.
But he paints this entire figure in about 3 hours, so you can watch his technique, he starts with a grey basecoat, then works from darker skin tones to lighter.

This will actually make it very yellow!

As you have scale colors I made this pale skin with mixing Carriban Blue and Blood Red as a chromatic grey adding White Sands and a smidge of Sahara Yellow for the highlights. This felt very easy to fine-tune along the way slightly favoring towards red.
I think underpainting was a dark purple with Black leather
