I wrote this up awhile back and completely forgot about it! When I was working on this image I wanted to see what others had done, but I had a very difficult time finding painted portraits of people with darker skin tones. Lots of photos, but not a lot of paintings. So I thought I'd share what I figured out while I worked on it - hope it's helpful.

Awesome.
I used this on my latest piece - still getting the hang of it (just getting into colouring humans) but this tutorial was super helpful. :)

Much thanks for this, in particular the advice about the highlights providing definition as opposed to the shadows of lighter complexions is a very useful insight.

well, I really apreciate it a lot.
beside this is a really good work,
it`s worth imitation and there`s a lot to learn.
I would like you to put a whole tutorial about it.
thanks.
