Which colours should I use for skin?

I have some colours, but none of them for for skin, which ones would you recommend? or should i start digital drawing?

Which color options do you have? :D
Depending on the medium you're using you could mix some too

Or yk give the character an unnatural skin tone

I only thought of hair and eye color, but now skin color sounds like something i would like do do

The orangish one could work for a realistic skin tone :0
Something like this maybe :)

Or you could go with a green skin alien haha

Or this :)

Just sharing some art so you can see how the color would work :0

[wide badger]

hm, nice, but the colours are VERY saturated

I'd say on the edge just calling them neon colours

If it's the only thing you've got then play into it :0

[wide badger]

i'll try

Or you could try and see what happens if you, for example, color a flat surface with the orange one and then go over it with a baby blue one :)

[wide badger]

hmm, i'll experiment with it, i can send you the results after 👍

[viscid kettle]

Sure thing :D

[wide badger]

Here it is:

Turned out better than i expected

[viscid kettle]

Oh heck yeah! :D
So layering worked?

[wide badger]

yes, it worked, i just need to get my hands on other colours, or i could focus on this for the meantime!

I wish you the best of luck :D
