To what subraces rather belongs a 'bloodless'-white skin-tone? Is it just a condition? On cheap cameras, it looks greyish, while other person rather show pink, brownish or olive coloration. It's like having Transylvanian ancestry.

Something I only came upon with the digital-camera of a known of mine.
Does there exist "greyish" coloration at all or only due to age maybe?

Non vascular white skin is Keltic mainly Irish and Scots. It is not grey, it is white with veinous tones. It has something to do with thin Keltic skin. In Australia the Anglo-Australians sometimes have a greyish white appearance.

Well, South Germany was a proper region of the Kelts once, untill the Romans and Germanics spread, what lead to a low population with very few archaeological remains in the non-Roman area. The reasons for that are unknown, I heard a Keltic tribe went out to fight the Romans, was defeated and settled elsewhere. Then it was a peripheral zone, till the Germanics went more and more expansive, with the Alemanni tribe in SW Germany (= all men ~ unified, new tribe). Today, the population here is to 75% mixed pinkish -tanning/yellowish. I myself got the 'bloodless'-yellowish complexion from this region however, though I also have redish hands and red in the face corresponding to what I did the rest of the day, but that's either from Westphalia or the Sudetenland, if such things can be located geographically at all. Where my forehead leaves are some seeable veins, but I'm actually not really thin-skinned.
