Looking for a quick and effective recipe for African flesh for 15mm figs. I use a 4+ color recipe for regular caucasian flesh for 28mm, but I use a 2 step recipe in 15mm (Tanned Flesh base, and Cadian Flesh highlight). Any ideas would be appreciated. :) |

Thanks. That's helpful in 28, but far too many steps for 15. |

I use a brown enamel undercoat (something like Humbrol 118, but I do vary it amonst the figures, so the tones come out with some differences) and then a thinned coat of Raw Umber oil paint over the top, which gives the depth and modulation to it. It takes a little while to dry, but then you can varnish matt or gloss according to you preference (I go gloss as I find it harder wearing, and with smaller figures, it makes the colours and deails stand out).
