So....by THEIR logic, a sketch I have Tiana in a sailor fuku/sailor senshi outfit based on her dress, I'd be OMG SO RACIST because I just happened to NOT shade in anything, including her skin, despite her being recognizably TIANA?

*sigh* Seriously? Their getting shitty of unfinished, un-shaded sketches?

Yeeeup :|

That's right up there with the Legend of Korra fandom getting in a twist about whitewashing because of someone's art of Korra bending fire showed her as "white" when in reality is was the light source from the fire that made her skin look brighter. Thanks to SJW's failure to grasp basic art knowledge they thought it was a good enough reason to hound the artist into redoing the pic to make her darker, then continue to harass the artist and send them death threats.

Yeah, I remember that. -_-

They ALSO don't take into consideration that each computer screen has a different brightness/contrast output. So on the artist's computer, she could be the brown she's supposed to be, but on another, she's lighter and then that artist gets hounded.

There's A LOT of things to take into consideration, especially if the artist is expressing a lot of confusion over perceived "white washing" when they had her drawn/colored right. Or, in the case of the unfortunate artist mentioned, LIGHT SOURCE.

*sigh*

It's damn good to be aware, people, but there's a line and you've crossed it. (general you)

Ha! I just posted about different screen contrasts before I read this. Seriously, my laptop and desktop are proof of how different screen calibrations can be.

Ugh this!! My bf's desktop has two monitors right? THEY are vastly different, on top of our laptops. So, 4 screens showcase contrasts differently.

And then, don;t get me started on doing graphic design work in school, going between a PC laptop and a an iMac. The difference ALWAYS came up and I had to change shit before printing.

Do you have a link to that Korra picture? Because I've heard so much about the wank surrounding it, but have never actually seen the pic.

WOAH

Just looking at some of the responses on that first pic, that is some SERIOUS wank.

And looking at the rest of her art, it's pretty clear that whitewashing is not what is occurring there.

OMG, I remember when someone showed them actually screencaps of Korra in the light vs. the dark as evidence of this, and that the SJWs concluded that Korra was being white-washed by her own show. LOL

More like "If you sketch a POC character on WHITE paper IS Whitewashing".

brb. Tea-staining all my sketchpads to comply with the anti-whitewash standards and practices.

[personal profile] edgelakanth 2012-10-15 04:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Make sure in make a lot of these so you can cover ALL the skin tones or else you are going to whitewash a character with dark skin.
