I doubt they just weren't willing to send photos...since they don't offer the other skin tones as standard they may just not have any high quality photos available of other products in those skin tones, especially if they haven't been special ordered yet (the product is rather new to the market). Their customer service has always been excellent...maybe if they have enough requests they will make some of the other colors available in photos. Their skin tones for the STP are the same as the tones for their other prosthetics...maybe you could ask them for a photo of a different product just to see the difference in color?
I wound up selling the M15 and using the cash to buy one in M16; RM said they couldn't help me.
Us darker-skinned guys really need to get together and have a conversation with them.
In the meantime, look at this chart. I made it as a reference for myself when I thought I was missing something with this matching business. Note the strong variation in tone in the genital area. When I ordered my first prosthetic from RM, I didn't shave and I just matched the samples to the top of my mons and to my upper inner thigh. This was a mistake. Look at how different these areas are from my "actual" bits!
If you're darker and thinking of ordering from RM, I'd suggest that you:
1. SHAVE. See what tones you have going on down there.
2. ORDER THE SAMPLES. They are at least one to two shades lighter than the chart on the site.
3. Match to the darker tones when in doubt.
Side note: these samples were taken from pics of my skin in natural daylight AND pics of the color samples sent by RM (also in natural daylight).
Here is the M15 STP:
See how it's a great match overall, but a little too light for the genital area? Now check this out. Here is an M17, erect 6 inch that I got 2nd hand:
I thought it would be MUCH too dark considering my overall skintone, but I was wrong. It is a bit dark for me, but I think it's actually a better (more realistic) match than the M15.
