I always used peach though

I actually had skin colour, I used Camlin and oil pastels. And yes, if skin wasn't there, I also used peach.

Every fucking time I had to draw a person when I was a kid and the teacher ws like "just use pink." It genuinely pissed me off and I was only like 6. Great, I coloured them in pink, now all of them look like they live in the land of peptobismol. I eventually started using orange as an alternative or didn't color the skin in at all because it looked at least somewhat more normal. I would have killed for a proper peach or biege marker <_<
