    Whats a good paint color for Sulu???

    Hello. So I've been watching ST TOS to get an idea. I have had an unpainted Sulu head for years and several ST MEGO bodies to mount him on. I just cant decide what color paint(s) to use for the Sulu flesh tone.

    I've always used regular flesh tone with about 15% yellow ochre added for Asians. Looks pretty natural without making them look like a Minion.

      I agree. I was going to suggest a medium tan (not too orange) with a bit of amber or ochre yellow added.
