Hmmm . . . skin tone colors . . . I'll do my best to answer, but I must admit that I often just mix whatever I have on my palette until it works. I'm pretty sure I used Indian red, burnt sienna, yellow ochre, and a little bit of ivory black. For the shading I used a very thin mix of ivory black. There may have been something else in there as well, but since I tend to use a lot of whatever I've been using on my palette (and I never keep the same palette) there could be something else that I can't remember. I hope that helps!
Here's the final product. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. Let me know what you think. Would you do anything different?

What colors do you mix to get his skin tone, if you don't mind my asking? It looks great.
Thanks, Michelle.
