Help me find a skin tone.

Greetings , fellow Archons and Coven Lords.

Can you please help me find colors i need for my Dark Eldar Skin?

I want it look like on the cover of the Codex, since i stole color scheme from it anyway.

I think this would match



Base: Dheneb Stone, Wash: GW Asurmen Blue, Highlight: Base color

Check tutorials for other skin tones tutorial and paint chart.

I saw your guide , this face looking good.
But if my eye dont decieve me on codex there is some greenish tone of skin , although base really look like Dheneb Stone.

I use Dheneb Stone, then wash with Badab Black, then highlight with Skull White.

The codex cover seems like it could do with the first two steps of mine, just replacing the Skull White highlight with something like Bleached Bone for that sickly green shade.

But none of those colours is green.

I guess my recipie could be upgraded to 1:1 Green-Blue wash.

You might try a Charadon Granite for shading if you use Dheneb for the skin tone. Should get a similar effect.

This has been v useful, cheers local ork for the basic recipe.

Any ideas for if I wanted to put in a little more effort for improved finish?

Thanks for the answers people, i will post restults for you to see.

It just so happen i have ordered Valejo Heavy WarmGrey not so long ago, which is equivalent to Dheneb Stone so i can try this very soon.
