So glad peachy FINALLY gave us the foreskin coloring tutorials we have been wanting
The hero you need, not the one you deserve 😂😂😂
I would like to unsee this comment please
🤣😂
LMFAO 🤣😂😂
6:49 😂
This is definitely one of the best produced hobby channels around. Video, sound, presenting, top
Well thank you kindly 😍😍😍 I’m glad you approve
Really love seeing Peachy in his element with these tutorials. Nearly spilt my cuppa when Peachy told us to "Lick that brush and run it around his nipples"
Haha! 🤭🤭🤭
One part wholesome, one part inclusive, two parts "lick the brush and rub it around the nipples"
I wouldn't have it any other way
Something to keep in mind if you are going for historical / real world tones is color of palms and feet. Both are geneally a little lighter overall. May not catch it when speed painting but good to have for hero figures with open hands
Yep a very nice observation, thanks for dropping that into the comments 😍
I noticed the same thing. Just a coincidence that the darkest skintone was on a model showing his open palm, but definitely worth noting.
Not on my white ass hands
For future videos - Would it be possible to list the next best matches from other popular ranges for each paint when the paints are displayed on screen? For example with the light skin tone I'm not sure if I'm after Rakarth Flesh or Flayed One Flesh to start with!
Would love to have that as well.
Rakarth is too dark, I would say one part Kislev to one part Flayed. I have it and did some palette mix to check
I was going to ask the same thing
Honestly, the best way to find that out is to google "Vallejo to Citadel conversion/ paint chart", there are a lot of good ones out there these days. I'd recommend finding one that measured in Delta E for the most accurate color matches and then sticking to if whenever you need a reference. The reason I say Vallejo is because AK are rarely part of those charts but Vallejo Model Color and AK are extremely close to each other and they both have the same naming scheme on the vast majority of their regular acrylic paints, so if you find the Citadel equivalent of a Vallejo paint then you know the AK counterpart :)
or just do what I do, and spend way too much money on way too many paints that are just slightly different and will probably never get used 👍
And to be super realistic, take tone 2 for the palms of tone 3. Nice tutorial, as always!
Awesome tutorial! Thanks Peachy! Absolutely love this one!
This is great! Thank you so much. Iv never been confident painting skin tones and it puts me off certain armies and games. I always have helmets on everyone!
Thank you for the excellent tutorial! Easily the most digestible and easy to follow tutorial for skin I have seen here.
Thank you for keepinf the laughs in. Those made my day. Also good vid!
Lovely tutorial, as always. Thanks so much!
Man these tutorials are gold. Keep'em coming good sirs!
Those are some amazing models and loved the tutorial. Thanks for sharing.
The Army Painting skin tone set is absolutely fantastic for painting all kinds of skin tones. I absolutely love it. Cheers!
I'm bringing a size 6 filbert, to date night. Thanks peachy!
Such a great tight video covering a great range of skin colours.
For my guard I have all different skin tones including a blue lady and a Simpson yellow dude
Longtime user of Citadel paints but recently started using AK Interactive. So impressed with the paints, new ‘go to’ for me.
40s of video and i already learned something new. thank you.
Love this, I just started struggling with some cadian faces in different tones
You guys must have known I needed this vid. I have just got a conan and red sonja figures. I shall be making an attempt in the coming weeks. 👍
Yet another excellent vid
Excellent video. Thank you.
Your painting style is really amazing with those AK paints, which I recomend!!!
Very impressed with the colour choices, other videos i've seen they literally just used specific skin tones from niche military modeller sets. Particularly impressed with the dark skin as you used a variety of colours, though yes technically the palm would typically be lighter.
I'm in the middle of finishing many.. bloodreaver's (first time painting skin) so thanks for this lol.
Could you do a lenses/ gemstones/ goggles tutorial?
Great video, I have a box of these I’m about to start so perfect timing!
Thank you for this video! Been struggling with the dark skin on two of original Underworlds minis and this has given me some ideas. Thanks Peachy! 🤙
Make sure you lick that brush! 😂
Absolutely amazing very helpful:)
Awesome - that's decided it then. I'm painting Catachans next!
Ooh nice!
Very timely video, I am planning on starting on my Masters of the Universe Battleground minis soon. 👍 Thank you
Nice, finally a big sponsor like Squarespace
I wonder how peachy would paint tyranids in a warrior bug scheme from starship troopers, or other bug species from the movie
The dark skin tone at the end looked surprisingly good, great figures with a lot a detail goes a long way as well
this is an awesome video. i totally suck in painting skintones for my unit. would try and test it out like how you paint it. Thank you for the guide!
You are very welcome 😍
Really cool tutorial.
I literally ordered a box of darkoath savagers and your video shows up in my feed.
I never knew Peachy looked so jacked or that Mrs Peach was so angry.
Came to watch because of the four skin...tones joke and was not disappointed by the painting either! Awesome work y'all!
Hahaha! Glad you enjoyed the vid, hope you liked the nipple section too 😂
This is going to work wonders for my world eaters
"Your coat of arms is in its way"
I'm guessing it's got lots of sleeves
That is 100% correct
This was a great video, I've been struggling alot getting a lightish skin tone for my eldar using Pallid Wych flesh and agrax earthshade.
I think maybe a video on doing some simple but effective Tyranid patternings could be really cool (and maybe popular given the recent announcement), similar to how you did all those different guard regiments. I've been trying to find inspiration to make my Tyranids pop, but I've struggled to come up with something I could do effectively but simply, besides the traditional two toned colour schemes which I find abit dull.
4:46 bro got a new Sub for this dialog alone 😂🎉
Sweet!
Another great video. I lot of the skin painting videos seem to miss a step. First add the bread, now add the jam and heres your roast dinner 🤔
Fantastic
2:45 😂 I always imagine a sadistic zeno race looking at a human with a lot of freckles and saying "I didn't know humans could be dappled! You'll have pride of place in my collection."
If you don’t already have one I’ve love you to make a video on painting eyes. One of the last models I painted looked great but the eyes looked like they were looking in two different time zones.
Cracking job on those. Who doesn’t have half finished projects, and seemed-like-good-idea-at-time painting schemes that destroy motivation. Have always been wary of changing course half way thru despite running out of steam but end result is fantastic. Also - Recognized an experience Napoleonic painter the way you nailed the white cross belts, straps and piping with confidence. Hope to see you knock out some napoleonics in the future.
Ha! Yes a good eye there spotting my Napoleonic skills kicking in lol, glad you liked the vid 😍👍
Doh! 🤦♂️ - this comment was supposed to be on your recent Ventrilian nobles vid. RUclips auto-played another vid without me noticing! The skin tones tutorial is also very helpful btw
Great vid peach,
Thank you Nick 😍👍
Hey, I'll say that this video is what finally got skin tones to at least partly click in my head :) I've been happy with what I've been able to put on my test models so far! Partly it's just rethinking the colors I already have (my Vallejo Cork Brown is *precisely* what I'm looking for in a skin color for my dudes)
Partly I just finally accepted that it's okay to just buy a paint for the skin tone I'm looking for lol. The skin tone guides I watched got very... technical with the mixing, and I got myself thinking I needed to do stuff that's above my level currently, and here y'all are just telling me: "use these colors, dum-dum, and have fun!"
Hey I’m glad the vids helped, tbh it can seem super daunting, but keeping the number of colours down on a mini for the skin tone, not only helps keep it simple but also visually more pleasing.
Keep up the good work
Mrs Peach is a keeper!
She certainly is, freest for opening jars too
NGL looking forward to the ad for the shenanigans.
I was not disappointed.
I have a large Slaves to Darkness force to paint, this will help!
Ooh nice!
Thanks for the tip on doing scars. That's the easiest I've seen and it looks great.
Great! Glad to have been of help
6:51 - foreskin tones. Lol
I've got a lot of models I'm planning on painting, that are showing a lot of skin (mostly human skin), instead of painting two layers of gray undercoat and two layers of color with zero shading and depth. Is there any methods of making some visually pleasing skin with shading, and outfits/uniforms with also good shading?
I'm still trying to get highlighting down, and how to correctly tie it to light sources and stuff. I heard one of the best beginner methods is to get a spray undercoat and just spray the model from above, using a white spray primer to simulate a light source.
Do people use washes for skin, for larger models that are also heavy on skin?
One last note, sort of new to mini painting any recommendations on any products to achieve these results?
Right now I've got the Game Master RP Paint set, but I've got the Vallejo Basic Paint Set & Vallejo Grey Primer coming in soon.
Down the line I'm thinking about the Vallejo Face/Skin Set, Citadel Reikland Fleshshade, Citadel Base Bugman's Glow, Citadel Layer Cadian Fleshtone, Citadel Layer Kislev Flesh.
Great video. As a Skaven player who tries to mix my skin tones but don't want them to look human, it would be great if you could do a video for ratmen, beastman skin tones etc.
Also, did you paint that with a junk brush?? Split ends, paint all the way up to the ferrule and they still looked awesome.
Tip I worked out for myself recently: if you pop a flesh tone contrast and the recesses are too dark. If you have a airbrush, I suggest you spray a mid tone skin tone over the top it really smooths out your gradients and blends
... this is a handy tip and I shall be remembering it!
Great video!
Any chance of a follow up with none human tones? I have a whole raft of Heroquest minis to paint, so things like undead/zombie, orcs, goblins and the abominations.
For my own reference here are the paints used:
Citadel Grey Seer Undercoat Spray
AK Basic Skin Tone
Citadel Guilliman Flesh
AK Luminous Flesh
AK Tan Yellow
Army Painter Peachy Flesh
AK Cork
Army Painter Aged Hide
AK Leather Brown
AK Mahogany Brown
Army Painter Noble Skin
AK Burnt Red
Cheers Barry, there should be a pdf on Patreon if your still a member? -peachy
I can always message it to ya
@@thepaintingphase oh cool! And it even has alternate paints! Nice 😀 I have the models unbuilt and half the AK paints so I'm planning my next hobby purchase to follow your guide! 😁
Why do the dayumn experts make it look so easy?
I used to dread painting skin but then I started playing a wild west game and realized that I couldn't represent the indians properly at all with the one Crusader Skin speedpaint that I had been relying on, the only guide I found that helped with those skin tones was form 19 years ago. So I took all my spare space marine heads and practiced painting skin and now I know both how to properly paint an indian from one of the various tribe from wild west USA as well as paint pretty good skin tones in general :). It also happened that it became one of the parts I enjoy painting the most :)
If anyone wants the recipe I came up with, let me know :)
Yea please, I was thinking this during the video. That I need a better Native American skin tone.
@@CaseyHuebner I have two ways, one simpel and one more difficult. But both layering and somewhat still under construction. Everything is either Vallejo Model or Game Color.
Simple: Cavalry Brown, Orange Brown, Flesh Wash (to blend the first two), Orange Brown again, final highlight made from a mix of Orange Brown, Plague Brown, and Cavalry Brown, they happen to often be on my pallet for wild west stuff but you can just use Tan Yellow or similar instead.
The more difficult one: Cavalry Brown, Orange Brown, Flesh Wash, Orange Brown, Gold Brown, end with highlight of Tan Yellow. Been thinking of maybe adding Light Flesh or similar as a final tiny highlight.
That dark skin tone is so realistic. The crazy part is the base tone and mahagony doesn't look like it'd go together at all until the wash hit it.
I love that you left in the laugh from the nipple joke and the drukari squarespace ad was mad funny
How do you paint Mechanicus skin?
Helmeted Salamanders watching on with anticipation... maybe next time 😂😂
0.44 - totally said 'Darkoath sandwiches'
Watching this while I work....My head snapped up hearing "Four skin tones"...
Can we have that on a painting phase t-shirt please..."lick that brush and run it around his nipples as well."
Damn this video would have been perfect except I wanted citidel color paint, as the local shop I have uses that brand so I wanted to get an idea for which one I should be buying and to be fair I did search with the words citidel colour but anyway thank you this will be my go to if I cant find something with citidel
Been using ak cork as a skin midtone for years, and luckely it did not change color when ak interactiv went over to 3gen, and the 3gen is some of the best hobby paints on the marked and is up there with kimera and new game color from valljeo, scalecolor artist acrylics and pro-acryl
Yeah their lovely paints, and that cork tone is brilliant.
Could you list the paints used in the description along with at least a citadel and/or vallejo equivalent please
We'll look into it, for now lots of the AK and Vallejo paints share names. Basic skin etc
A like just for “lick your brush….”
One a serious note for fair skin these days I use Vallejo Pale Sand, a wash of Seraphim Sepia, highlight with Pale Sand and then if desired Vallejo Off White.
On the matter of other paint ranges for skin Reaper MSP Triads: Dark Skin, Tanned Skin and Fair Skin make a fairly continuous skin range across a wide spectrum. You can either use simple layering, or get your preferred high flow medium (Contrast/Speedpaint/Express/etc.) and then to make a wash/tone type with your shade and follow the method outlined in the video.
Cheers! And thanks for the tips too 😘👌
Who wrote the script for the square space ad? Genius
Would anyone have an recommendations for a Contrast equivalent to Aged Hide? I haven't been able to get any for ages.
What a about Ork?!
Would have been funny to include green skin tone and not commented on it but being human.
6:48 Come again O_O
Love PP videos usually but as a new painter I found the lack of conversion frustrating. I’ve found it hard to find an AK > citadel chart and wasted around 15 mins trying. Won’t be using this for skin tones unfortunately. Looking forward to the next video though guys. Top production.
Vallejo and ak use pretty much the same naming system, their colours are well matched for converting to citadel paints - Pat
#foreskintones
What models are these ?? Are they random picks or a unit ?
nice video, but Citadel equivalent ??
I'm painting realistic skin tones for the first time on my Aeldari using citadel paints and the light tones looks really chalky. I've been thinning the paints with either water or medium but still a bit pap. Any advice? I don't want to blame the tools ha
Sometimes it might just be the paint, also depends on how thinned down they are, if it’s not thinned enough then maybe try a bit more water, no harm will come from applying lots of thin coats.
Pallid watch flesh is also ver chalky if that’s the paint your using, I’d suggest Kislev and just use some contrasts
Literally pulled my Dark Oath out to paint when this popped up as recommended... this algorithm guys...
It’s mad science is what it is lol
Even the autocaptions picked you up as saying sandwiches 😂
How bizarre! Lol
You could have put a spit-take warning on screen! I spat a mouthful of coffee all over my desk! 😂
Sorry Rob, hope no electronics were harmed! - Pat
Gotta love those angry peachy warrior women!
BTW: That dark skin turned out great!
😍👍 cheers Jeff
I'm painting the same warband and is my first warband, but I'm almost finished. Where were you 3 weeks ago? XD
Ha! Sorry lol, it’s an amazing warband among one of my favourites to date I think
@@thepaintingphase hahaha, no worries, only humor. Amazing paint job, I'll keep a few tips from here for my next project.
Basic skin tone is like kislev flesh?
6:49 😂😂😂
The only paid promotions worth watching.
Loved the video it was really helpful. I hope you guys are at warhammer fest
Sadly we can’t make Fest, but we will be attending the UK games Expo
I've licked my brush, where do you want it?
Would you be kind enough to list the music tracks you used for this video please x
Link in the description to the site I use. In this video it's mainly a chap called Adrián Berenguer, album is Presto I think 🤔
@@thepaintingphase thank you 😊
Step 1, lick brush. Step 2, wait what?!? 🤣
Hahaha
Anyone know where to get noble skin ? Can’t seem to find it
It’s an army painter speed paint 2.0, they should have it available on their store
How often does Peachy get sent to HR? 😂
Well currently Pats the HR department and I’m in his office everyday 😬😬😬
Oh thank you for this \o/ Skin is... kinda terrifying, frankly. You can make clothes look decent pretty easy, but skin is like... hard is the wrong word, but it stands out more if it's done badly?
Yeah I totally understand and sympathise, it’s taken me a fair few years to get more confident with skin. Testing on spare heads really does help
