"Lifecolor Flesh Set" Topic

I have the above set and I'm attempting to use it based on the directions on the box but I am seriously hating the look of the figures once applied. I have done a search on the net to see if I could find a good tutorial on using these paints but haven't come across anything that is well written. Mostly reviews.

So my question is: Has anyone used this set of paints and if so can you provide a quick "How to" on using them?

Thanks!

yes I have used them and do use them I think they are superb..I start from the bottom and work up, i.e darkest to lightest.If you use all six colours the effect is..dramatic

See that method makes sense to me but the way it's described on the box is totally different.
So do you just make progressively lighter washes with each color?

who ever reads the box?
well I don't wash as such, actually I do at one point but..I paint all the flesh the darkest colour first and work up from there.I wouldn't thin them much all just rely on the natural trend to the slight transparency of acrylic.I really like lifecolor generally. Israeli sand grey is an extremely useful colour in my palette.

Like most of these flesh colour sets, the midtone first, then shadows is only really applicable to much larger scale figures. I would use them as suggested – work up from dark tones to highlights.

Thanks for the suggestions.
