Nice. Most of these colors look right to me, but I'm also seeing green, blue and purple? If you're curating colors from the space manually then it's not a problem.
"Only realistic colors" would be a different problem. And I'm not sure if there's a way to solve that problem without excluding some real colors too.
(Maybe if the colour selector was a different shape? I don't know much about color spaces.)

  If you drag the bottom slider all the way to the right you only have plausible skin tones. Drag it all the way to the right and you can match skin tones for orcs, Na'vi and djinn
