5. The next color pass is yellow. Select yellow RGB
   value 255 255 128, and apply it to those areas
   of the skin that are thinner, and areas where the
   bone is closest to the surface, such as the fore-
   head, temporal ridge, chin, and clavicles. Notice
   how the yellow takes on a green cast in the areas
   where it meets the blue (Figure 5.26). Use the
   yellow sparingly.

Mottling Pass

the face, we can move on to what is called the mottling

pass. This is sometimes called the noodling pass. The

point of this color pass is to break up the previous lay-

ers with little squiggly lines to help simulate the fibers

and tissues of the deep skin layers.
