I want to show you how just changing one pencil can completely change a skin tone. Colour swatches are a fantastic tool for matching and accuracy and you can use this technique to improve drawing portraits and people.
This tutorial uses the following Polychromos colours:
Ivory
Light Flesh
Warm Grey III
Cinnamon
Warm Grey IV
Bistre
Walnut Brown
Burnt Ochre
Red Violet
Burnt Siena
Venetian Red
Dark Sepia

Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial. I love to colour, and I only just started getting serious about it. Even though your tutorial is in faber Castel I think it's very applicable to other brands as well because of how you explain how the colour work together to get your end result ❤

Great video must be doing German skin tones if you do English skin tones you will have to use Derwent pencils.

Great, in this video you gave the colors used. I starting in portait I bought Faber Castell Pitt pastel, trying to learn Colin Bradley style , then later saw beautiful Portrait tutorials on colored pencils,so I bought the Derwent Ligtfast 36 colors ,they seem Ok for Portraits , animals and Landscapes but like other people saying in reviews ,too many browns and greens . I see you using the Faber castell as opposed to Derwent .Do you have preference for Polychromos ? I heard they were better for details work and they come in very nice color range so will need to buy thoses too! Please keep doing turorials want to see more more.......and more! Thank you!

I've always been a Polychromos fan, I really like the detail you can work in with them. Thanks for the kind words, I'll keep making new videos!

Ooh now that's a good question, it was a while ago I made this video. Looking at it I'm pretty certain it's as follows: 4 - Ivory, Beige-Red (used to be called Light Flesh), Venetian Red, Red-Violet, Burnt Siena 5 - Ivory, Beige-Red, Burnt Ochre, Bistre, Warm Grey IV, Walnut Brown 6 - Ivory, Warm Grey III, Warm Grey IV, Burnt Siena, Dark Sepia I hope this helps!
