So, you’re planning on drawing characters with certain undertones but you sure don’t want to make some racist yellowface/redface mess. This subject has been touched on a few times, but I figured I’d give my tips to digital artists out there.

Here’s another really quick tutorial from me:

Start with your base colour on a Normal layer.

Open a new layer ontop of it.

On that new layer, use a very pale yellow, orange, pink (or if you want a cool blueish undertone use a slightly purplish light pink) to cover your base skintone with.

Set that new layer to Multiply, and you’re done.

Note: Multiply layers make the colours of the layer underneath it darker, if you’re drawing someone super pale, mess around with an even lighter colour or change the opacity on the layer. Don’t change the layer to Screen or Luminosity, it’ll completely wash out your image. 

The undertones in dark skin are a little richer in colour (in fact most yellow undertones in brown skin are more of a golden undertone), so you can make that Multiply colour that’s a darker pastel yellow or red or what have you.

You can also use this trick to show a blush on any skintone as well!

And if you want more references on undertones on real people, beauty blogs man. They’re the way to go:

@theamazingartofescapism asked me about how I draw hair. I’m sure I missed out heaps of stuff but in general this is how I approach it. Hope it’s helpful :D
