Yeah, unfortunately this. There's no term for the racist act of making a POC character's skin darker than it is (which I mean, it's probably good there isn't), but there IS one for the opposite direction, and people love to fling it around willy-nilly (e.g. drawing a character in a brighter palette/lighting than in canon...). If you're an artist in an overzealous "anti-racist" fandom, the only way to be safe drawing POC is to draw their skin at least as dark as it is in canon-typical lighting, and maybe one or two shades darker than that.

(Whenever someone eyedrops skin tones from screenshots to make a point about fandom whitewashing characters, the artist in me dies.)

/also a light-skinned POC who thinks white people in fandom's inability to think critically about race (and art) in their anti-racist policing activities has given me trust issues in fandom, lol.

Why do people glorify the eyedrop thing so much? Is almost like furries being mad because the artist didn't use the exact hex color of their character. Eyedrops do work but in a neutral light and high res pic and even then, it might not be the exact tone!
