When work on skin tones in CM one of the biggest hurdles is knowing what "Skin Pin" to set.  I have created a few resources for you to use and build upon. 

The first is a JPG image that I have posted before that has an extended range of skin tones for you to choose.
You will need the ID and Password to get to this image.

The next is a set of pins that I have posted in the Pins Area. Pins.txt needs to be copied to your pins folder.
The Jpg is available there too but in a smaller version.

Lastly is the work flow...

A special thanks to Ganna for the wonderful example of needing skin tones corrected.

Just a quick note to thank you for uploading this PDF. The gradient/foreground/background technique is amazing! I have been wondering for the last few weeks about why on earth being able to pin things to Photoshop's foreground and background colours would be helpful. This technique is genius!

I've been correcting skin tones all day, and have found CM really helpful. The skin tone mask has helped me out a few times, and I'm just loving the workflow  :)

I will get back to this week's exercises tomorrow. I'm loving this course  ;D

Thanks so much,
Lee.

Thanks Lee...
