Thank you. The challenge here was to keep the value range within the shadow very narrow, yet at the same time broad enough, in order to describe the form(s) and avoid dull, flat look. The same goes for the flesh hues, as well.
As for the chroma, all paints I used were heavily desaturated.
(It is difficult to see the nuances I am speaking about here, since they are lost in reproduction).
