[Woodcarver] flesh tones

[jdscrafts]

I want to take the time to thank everyone for the information submitted here.  Basically I want to try and get the effect of using a dye on a piece of cherry to match some stone work I am doing.  The stone is called pink but is more flesh colored than pink.  I want to use the oil because of the color fastness of it.

I have also enjoyed the information about oil verses acrylic paints.  I have to admit the main reason I use oil is because that is what someone in this group got me started with and I liked the outcome.  Thanks Mush! 

Oh, one more thing, WHERE'S MY LOBSTAH?

  It has been a while sense I have had a need for flesh tone color.  Can any one give me the mix using oil paint and mini-wax natural stain?

  Much appreciated!
