>Dan: Painting a predominantly East Asian skin tone across Grand Cathay was a new challenge for us. It’s easy to assume there is one correct recipe or paint scheme to go with, but that’s not faithful to the wide variety of skin tones in reality. At the same time, it’s a range so we have to make it all feel relatively consistent and uniform – with exceptions for the Ogres, who are likely mercenaries and thus can be from outside the kingdom of Grand Cathay.
>We primarily focused on a small selection of paints to give ourselves a strong foundation for the skin tones – around five or so tones – and the way we established variety was by starting at different points on that scale for lighter or darker skin. Shading up and glazing down appropriately, but working largely within a tight run of paints. There is some organic variation outside of that as well.
