This is my color palette for the Brewer Children. I found out completely by accident, that if you mix Magenta and Cadmium Yellow Medium into Titanium White, you get a beautiful natural-looking flesh tone. A yellow/green browns it up a bit, and a light touch of Ivory Black and Burnt Umber really get the shadows going. To get any bluish tone of the skin, I added a some Payne's Grey to the mixture. I love how colors work.
