Work from light to dark

The basic principle is to start with a light colour

EVERYWHERE, except where the pure white

highlights will be and gradually darkening the

colours where required by adding other colours in

tonal order. The chart on the right shows the tonal

order you should use for Coloursoft Skintones

starting with Cream and ending in Brown Earth.

Tonal Order

Blending Colours

If you do not have the colour you require in the 6

pencils you will have to mix it e.g. Dark Terracotta

and Pink will give you several tones in-between.

Most ordinary flesh tones can be mixed using these

6 pencils but if you want to use others the chart

shows you linked colours. Remember however to

always progress from light to dark in tonal order.

Of course for bright red lipstick or blue eyes other

colours from the Coloursoft range will be necessary.

There 72 colours in the complete range.

Use a good quality heavyweight paper

You will be putting lots of layers on and perhaps

erasing and blending so the paper will need to

withstand this punishment. Use Derwent Sketching

Paper (165gsm).
