how do i make my own skincolor?

[Doxy the fox]

i've been working on my mod for over a month now, and i've been wondering how can i can make my character's orange fur more accurate to him in my art. if anyone wants to make the skincolor for me then the main orange color is #ff502e, the shadow color is #860600, and the highlights are #ffae8a and #ffcd99 for the brighter color (here's the reference for how the colors are laid out)

Custom Skin Colors : Starter Guide

Just to potentially cull the many, MANY "how do I make custom color" questions that I'm sure we'll be receiving, here's a really fast tour on what to do. You can approach this in two ways : Lua or SOC. SOC is faster and doesn't initialize the Lua interface, but Lua is much more flexible, and...

ok first of, why is he so bright orange? (quick update, i realized that the layout of the colors don't match up with my original artwork, so it's not the colors being wrong...)

it’s impossible to make a skin color with the exact colors you have in your drawing. you have to find colors in srb2’s palette that match the colors you used for dox.

i think u got the colors right, but the way they are laid out aren't the most accurate, but at least it's something
