Title: What brand and color for the orange skin?
Post by: Erik on October 18, 2017, 12:07:31 am
Just wondering what people are using for that orange color on the skin of the Empire guys and their mounts, sometimes.

For example:

What brand?  What color?

My skintones are a bit darker, but I guess any orange-brown (usually a leather Brown) will do. Snakebite Leather from the old citadel range looks like a great candidate, no idea what it's called today. With a muddy wash and a bone colour added to the base colour as a highlight you are probably good to go.

Mine (many of those pictures above) are done using GW/citadel vermin brown as a base colour. It’s then washed with Windsor & newton peat brown ink, highlighted with vermin brown & white.

Hope that helps and sorry for the delay in replying!
