So I came to the most challenging part of the project… painting fair skin.  I did a lot of research and found that Kislev Flesh and Pallid Wych Flesh are the most common paints used.  But another thing I know with painting female fleshtones is that you do not want a harsh contrast so using washes was out of the question.

In the end I settled on the following:
Fair Skin
Using several thin layers of Citadel Kislev Flesh on a basecoat of a white primer gets the initial starting point.

Use a 50/50 mixture of Citadel Kislev Flesh and Citadel Pallid Wych Flesh to leave the Citadel Kislev Flesh in the recesses.

Finally highlighting raised areas of the skin use a 2 part to 1 part mixture of Citadel Pallid Wych Flesh and Citadel Kislev Flesh.

Red Corsets/Robes

Build up Citadel Khorne Red over several thin layers.

Use a 50/50 mixture of Citadel Nuln Oil and Citadel Carroburg Crimson diluted partially with water.  I ended up using about equal parts of water and each wash paint.

Tidy up the raised areas with Citadel Khorne Red

Highlight the edges of the robes and corsets with Citadel Wild Rider Red.

Vines

Being very careful build up Citadel Loren Forest on the each of the vines.

Highlight the raised bits of the vines with a 2 part to 1 part mixture of Citadel Loren Forest and Citadel Screaming Skull.

Wood

Base the wood with a 2 part to 1 part mixture of Citadel Gorthor Brown and Citadel Dryad Bark.

Wash with Citadel Agrax Earthshade.

Highlight up the edges with a 4 part to 2 part to 1 part mixture of Citadel Gorthor Brown, Citadel Dryad Bark and Citadel Screaming Skull.

Finally on the sharpest edges use a 2 part to 1 part mixture of Citadel Gorthor Brown and Citadel Screaming Skull
