If you made it this far then your at Step 3. you must be really getting good at this but here
is the most important step of all. the skin, the skin reflects your character in a anime scense
the skin is what most attractive specially when the character is a female in a swimsuit.
Pick your skin colour very carefully before you start. I usually go for something in the
orange/pink/white range, and make it fairly light. What colour you use is really up to you,
but keep in mind that some colours shade better than others.
Create a new layer and set it to Multiply, as before.
Base Color - Lay down your chosen base skin colour -- don't worry if you cover the mouth or whites of the
eyes, since you'll be cleaning these up later.
Cleanup - Then clean up things with the eraser... messy edges, eyebrows, hair, mouth and any other bits
that aren't skin.
Now for the hairline and whites of the eyes. Use the Eraser tool and a medium soft-edged brush
to soften the line where the skin meets the hair (or eyes). The bigger the brush, the softer
the effect will be.

Save again, and now you can shade the skin!
Dodging - Do the highlights first with the Dodge tool (either highlights, 15% or midtones, 50%). Make
sure you pay attention to lighting, matching the highlights in the eyes. A light spot on the
darker cheek tends to look good.
Burning - Then use the Burn tool (midtones, 50%) for shadows. Don't forget about where the light is
coming from!
Flatten the image, save again and it's time for the hair.
