Looking for a mix ratio to mix up a Cream or Vanilla color. Thanks for any help with this. Hopefully I have the colors to make it happen.

This came right from Deb, the color master. Start out with a 2:1 mixture of white, and yellow,...white being the large one. Then add a drop of red, and a drop of green. That should do it. She would post it herself, but shes busy being attacked by my 6 year old.

Thanks Craig. Had another formula that called for yellow and purple. 4:1. Tried it and ended up with a color that resembled a booger. Thanks again.

Since we're on color .. if Deb isn't still under atack what does she recommend for felsh tone with HOK?

I like to start out with white,then I add some rootbeer candy, then if it is to red for the type I want, I add abit of organic green, if I want it to be darker I add a small amount of violet kandy, really if you make a fleshtone, and it has a tint that you don't like, you simply add a small bit of the opposite color and it will kill it. So, if it is to yellow, add violet... if it is too red, add green... if it is too orange, add blue. Or visa versa.
This is the big secret to color theroy.

Thanks Deb. Guess I better go get myself a color wheel if I'm going to be doing pinups and things like that then.

The three main compliments that Deb mentions can easily be remembered this way. Yellow/Violet= Lakers Blue/Orange = Broncos Red/Green = Christmas. Great trick to remember how to modify your colors to get just what you want. Good luck.

Yeah but I hate basketball, like the Panthers and the Ottawa Senators colors are black, red and white.
