I changed Joel's pose because he was mimicking HUNK holding his torch up in a reverse grip.
The mismatched colour of Joel's neck really hurts photographing him. The camera always accentuates the difference, especially with the flash taking away the natural shadow created by his jaw.
With various flesh shades at hand I attempted again and again to try and mix up a colour that matched the sculpt. I was having a mental block defining to myself exactly what colour Toys Era's flesh was.
I got close when it dawned on me there had to be a hint of black in the paint to tone down the pink. The final coat was Coat d'Arms flesh, which is called 'pale flesh' or 'elven flesh' by other companies, mixed with a tiny bit of their Panzer Grey (which is practically black).
I was surprised it actually worked. The only issue is that it dried with a satin finish due to the rubbery quality of the neck joint. I attempted to tone down the upper part by sponging on some stubble.

I think you should flip the neck part upside down. The head will sit more naturally if you do so“O Ellie, Ellie, wherefore art thou Ellie?”
