Felix von Luschan Skin Color Chart
Description from Wikimedia Commons:
This is a reproduction of the Von Luschan's chromatic scale made by anthropologist Felix von Luschan. The original was self-made from scratch with the paint program in the likeness of the chart originally printed in Voelker, Rassen, Sprachen (1927). The skin colors used were copied from the original chart box per box using the paint program's dropper tool.

Submission details:
I came across this scale while doing a little research on human skin tone colors. I thought it would be interesting to have it listed here on OGA for anyone who might want to reference it when making sprite skin re-colors.
This is NOT my work. I have not contributed to it or altered it in any way, other than converting PNG image to indexed color. These are the original files taken from Wikimedia Commons.

Very useful as I've been creating characters with darker skin tones lately.
