What color, or combination of colors, would I use for tanned skin? I'm modeling the SAS Jeep, so the figures would probably have dark tans. I've tried brown, light brown, combinations of flesh/brown/red, flesh/brown, brown/white, etc... Nothing seems to look right. Any suggestions?

Give Burnt Sienna MM 2007 and Flesh a try, just a touch of the Burnt Sienna or until it approches the reddish brown you are looking for
