This is about the range of skintones that Supermodel Vickie uses in her texture maps. A lot of caucasion flesh tones that I've seen look very yellow, most are lighter than this set, too. SMVs maps were all hand painted, BTW, some do it that way, no photos harmed in the making of! Normal range of skintones (all skintones) are low saturation reds, oranges and yellows. Too low in saturation and they do start looking gray, though. I often do my skintones so the darks go tward red (or even magenta) and the hilights tward yellow.
