They favour their mother, clearly, Columbian predominate. If they were tanned it woudl be very clear. There is nothing Nordic about the boys taxonomy.

[Sikeliot]

Rather French looking and surprisingly not mixed race.

I don't see French. I still say Columbian clearly. I ask is the mother of European Spanish origin? Or Native to Columbia. There is something about their mouths and noses that leads me to say native.

Here the answer, look the eyes, nose and mouth, are typical light mestizos.

Defs agree with you on this one. He does look rather french...something atlantid about him.

[Supreme American]

IMO distant negroid admixture on mother's side, especially in the one on the left.

[Saruman]

First boy looks with slight Amerind. In the second it is more obvious and stronger, his nose, mouth, chin/jaw region could somehow come up in Europe with some Berid and other variants but it would probably look different still on avg., and his eyes are more Amerind influenced additionally, so those are clear hints.

I have to disagree here to a degree (if that makes sense.) I have reviewed these three times and I do not see 100% a particular distant Negroid admixture in either of them (however there may be if the mother proves otherwise. We are working from visual only.)

I think the mouth and nose areas are what you may be referring to as a distant Negroid admixture? If so, that may be correct, that is common among Negroid admixtured Colombians, but I feel that may likely stem from the mother's ancestry from Colombia that may well not include that admixture. I have met light Colombians who look very much like these boys.

I found an image online from an article about a man's growing up in Colombia. He shows a variety of Columbian boys in one photo mid-page click it to enlarge. I refer to the one in the foreground with the red stripped shirt and compare.

In this picture I think Northern Euro admix is pretty clear:

But as the other kid, he does indeed look Colombian or Venezuelan.

[SilverKnight]

She looks bi-racial, with a bit more euro and amerindian as second but with a pretty large percentage of it to. Their grand mother seems very European never seeing the grandfather who might carry the high Amerindian and maybe african.

I would say something sub-nordic to him...

The mother is born and native from Colombian with off course some European ancestry most possibly Spain considering how the grandmother looks like and their last names.

[GeistFaust]

I was thinking they might be more in the Castizo range racially speaking. The one guy on the top looks the most Northern European influenced basically a combination of an Atlanto-Mediterranid and Nordic(Nordo-Mediterranid Atlantid) with Alpinoid/Cro-Magnon influences. The other boys look to be Atlanto/Berids with Amerindian influences and the boy on the bottom looks the most Amerindian influenced.

[SilverKnight]

I don't know the guy above with the red hat. In my view I see some amount of Nordid in both of my friends it might be that the fact they're mix with amerind make people not see it, but I do, mostly on my friend Sebastian (black shirt) he shows a fair amount of Nordid let alone his dad is pure Swedish.

I think it would have being harder to tell right away that their mixed part Colombian/ native if I had only mentioned that they're only Swedish?.

[Sikeliot]

I would have guessed them as entirely European had you not said what they were.

Colombian isn't a race. There are some Europeans there.
