Hi
I want to create a color chart based on a reasonably sized general chart but with a few thousand skin tones to make skin as accurate as possible
I have made a chart – no idea if its suitable! just found a list of 5 skin tones in rgb 0-100% and added a 100 patch saturation sweep for each
I thought it may be better to add a luminescence sweep for each hue? as in darkest to brightest without clipping lowest color channel? all stepped by 1%??
as an example one skin color is r-100, g-87.84, b-74.12
I would add all the values in spread sheet down to r-27, g-14.84, b-1.12
Would this work and be useful or not?
I have a florescent lcd main display and a ips led laptop
I am able to get them close but sometimes still struggle when editing on 1 machine or the other, white balance decisions will be different and perhaps more importantly decisions on tint between the machines can I make the temperature & tint of the display closer than usual with display cal?
I also note that my main display seems to vary a lot as in after a calibration a verification straight after is not accurate
All my work is within lightroom..
Any Help would be appreciated
FWIW ive purchaed a Color munki display to replace my old color munki smile that is rather old now I assume this will help with a more accurate result as will a new main display sometime soon!!

It would work, but usefulness will be very limited: Display devices are generally far too linear across their device response for a localized increase in test patch resolution to have any discernible effect on the resulting profile accuracy.
can I make the temperature & tint of the display closer than usual with display cal?
Yes. See the FAQ entry on visual whitepoint matching.
I also note that my main display seems to vary a lot as in after a calibration a verification straight after is not accurate
That may hint at display (backlight) instability. Disable all dynamic/autodimming/powersaving on the monitor (if it has any).
