Same, and as artist color theory is way too complex to understand, I know, but how dense you have to be to understand that anything changes the color? Filters, lights, tones, anything will change the color! And yet they get angry at someone that films a tanned character in a white background as "white washing"? Come on.

Yeah, as an artist on Twitter, that's not what's being seen and called out. In fact, there are a lot of color theory posts proving that the problem isn't just a case of color theory

Probably, but most of the call outs are from characters in white backgrounds or being recorder/taking photos with cellphone or the illumination changes the hues, but that doesn't stop people to claim the skin is "way too light" when the artist is using a reference from an official image.

And yet even when it's somewhere in between, like in one of my fandoms, where the artist was aware that the palate she used was lighter for everything, including the character, and thought that was fair because her medium was watercolor, that is the exact same thing as hating black people. And also the artist is now magically white for having done so, even though she's Asian.

"You wanted to try using watercolor so you could make an excuse for drawing a black character a little lighter, not because you thought watercolors looked fun! You thought we wouldn't know it's possible to use very dark colors in watercolor, hmm? You know what you were doing, you racist bitch."

if they're still drawing the character with dark skin, why does it matter whether they're using the exact shade as the official art?
