CONSUME MY SUPPORT APPAREL, LOSERS!


« on: October 08, 2006, 08:07:37 pm »

I'm coloring an assignment for school, and find myself slightly vexed: One of my characters is Hispanic, and my every attempt to create the proper skin tone makes him look like he's been swimming in Cheetos. Does anyone know of a good base color for a Hispanic skin tone in CMYK?

The Scots (originally Irish, but by now Scotch) were at this time inhabiting Ireland, having driven the Irish (Picts) out of Scotland; while the Picts (originally Scots) were now Irish (living in brackets) and vice versa. It is essential to keep these distinctions clearly in mind (and verce visa).

In the world it is called Tolerance, but in hell it is called Despair, the sin that believes in nothing, cares for nothing, seeks to know nothing, interferes with nothing, enjoys nothing, hates nothing, finds purpose in nothing, lives for nothing, and remains alive because there is nothing for which it will die.
