It is necessary
- - palette for paint guidance;
- - gouache;
- - brush;
- - a glass of water.
Instructions
Step 1
Flesh color is a group of human skin tones. Therefore, in each case, you may need your own version of the flesh tint. It is necessary to clearly understand what color you need to get or see the model in front of you. It is quite difficult to reproduce this one, but it is possible.
Step 2
Prepare a paint palette and a clean brush. First, frame the base to get the flesh color. To do this, mix a small amount of yellow and red gouache. The red paint needs to be added a little at a time to create a bright orange color.
Step 3
To get very light skin color, place a small amount of white gouache on the palette and add a little orange base prepared in advance to it. Add base until you get the desired shade. If you add a little more base, you can get a flesh color suitable for medium skin tone.
Step 4
Place some base on the palette. Add some red gouache, turning the orange to reddish. Dip the tip of the brush in blue paint and add to the previously obtained color. After thoroughly mixing the colors, you should get a flesh-colored skin of a dark shade.
Step 5
For a darker skin tone, mix the base color with even more red gouache than in the previous step. Add a drop of black paint and mix the gouache thoroughly.
Step 6
Flesh color in French sounds like "carnation". Later, this unusual term began to be called painting techniques aimed at obtaining a shade suitable for depicting human skin. In this case, obtaining the desired color occurs not only by mixing paints on the palette, but also by multilayer superposition of various shades on top of each other to obtain the desired color.
