I’ve heard that skin tones are the most difficult aspect of portraits to get right. My subjects’ skin looks either red or yellow or orange. I’ve been sliding hue and saturation sliders in the Hue/Saturation dialog for more time than I care to admit, and still cannot get good skin tone.
Any pointers? Suggestions? On-line primers?
One thing that I don’t understand: when I slide the yellow hue to the high end (max value) the skin goes very greenish. But when I choose "greens" and slide the hue slider, there is no change. Why is this?
