maybe the skin oils can shine if the light hits it just right and the women will deliberately apply makeup that is reflective

[Anonymous No.3675695]

>>3675472
Dark skin is much more reflective than light skin, that’s where you can introduce value and hue variation. Look at pic related, it clearly reads as a black person but has a good value and tonal range. Look at the warm red reflected light and the cool blue in the shadows. Some of the values are also very light but only in relation to the other values. Due to its arrangement it still reads as a black person. You shouldn’t limit your values and tonal range just because you’re painting someone with dark skin, instead you should ask yourself how to put together a full range of values and colors and make it still read as a dark skinned person. It’s more about the relationships of the colors/values and less about the actual colors/values. You could paint a white person with very dark colors/values and a black person with very light colors/value.

You've got some experience painting people, but your coloring always looks so smear heavy, and everything except the people look terrible. To compound that, a lot of your people have fudnamental issues (just ITT we had giant hands and disporportionate eyes) and end up looking terrible in the long run with a variety of various issues.
