If you do that try not make it look like a zombie.

Why not just Dwarf Fleshmixed with grey? Or even just dwarf flesh like i use

I don't see why it would be all that different from male CD skin.
i tyed elf flesh and highlight it did look good .im thinking of greys and highlight with white.
The reason i dont use dwarf flesh too dark .im looking paleskin  so her green eye can be overpowering.
Dark grey to white in Duargar style might work i use brown to dwarf flesh dark tanned look semiticRespect to the Hat!

That's what I was thinking.
They may be a bit paler if they don't get outdoors as much as CD males, but surely not significantly so.

A good saffron color would be nice on a CD babe.

Except I forget what color saffron is... it's generally used in the same sentence as 'swarthy' though.

If that is how your mini is looking I must haved died and gone to Great Hashuts Hat! Happy

Well the skin tone im doing is quite grey, but i am adding in a slight hint of flesh colour, so she doesnt look dead!

I would start with a dark grey mixed with dwarf flesh, and just keep adding white for the highlights!

I wasnt talking about typical chaos dwarf. The image of an orange haired, green eyed, plae skined girl in a very common image for characters in fantsay novels.

thanks Warplock monkey.well tallhat you were gone for a while!

How do you mean Kera?

It might be interesting to paint CD females as looking the same as male CDs but give them makeup around the eyes, lips and cheeks.
Just ahd a rethink, it would be better if you added the highlights with bleaced bone insted of white, if you want it to look more skin like
well i was thinking white with washes of greys  the to get the deep creaces. then drybrush with elf flesh?
