There were more than six colors. I'm always surprised that nobody has changed that in the online descriptions.

Depending on the card some colors were done by mixing, some printed directly. For instance, the greenish background on Steinfeldt is light blue over yellow. Others like the other Oldring -have the green as yellow, light blue and light green.

Blue is typically both light blue and dark blue.
Red is usually printed over pink.
There's also gray on several if not all.
And usually a tan/peach color combined with pink to make the flesh tones.

If the back is nice, I'd think it was a missing color or one color printed very lightly. There's also a group I'm trying to figure out that has very off colors, usually making the player look very pale.

I'll have to dig out my Oldring with that pose and see what layers it has.
