I think the blue eyes are throwing me off.  Are you planning to swap them out for brown?

When you said the skin had a reddish hue, I immediately thought of the Redskins (football) and then native American.  However, I also thought of how the AA baby that I saw that was a newborn.  That baby seemed to have a more red Caucasian skin than AA skin, but I was told the AA baby's skin darkens later on.  I think either would work, and the colors you use would depend on how dark you want the doll to be.

I think I would try the Flesh 05 - 04 as a base.  If those don't appear  dark enough to suit you, try the 03.  It should be a fun experiment.
