I feel like with what I've got and mixing it up, I can pretty much get the medium range (value) skin tones I need. What I'm missing most are the darker tones, whether browns, reds, blues, etc. It's like, I've got black, and then next value up (any color) is quite a jump. I like the Great Americans a lot for all but the finer detail work - very painterly, they go on thick - but I guess I have a pretty limited set. (36 color portrait/figure set) I'm just missing darks!

For really deep rich darks, what would you recommend?
