ok so this person is trash and thought they were going to get away with it. you can tell they didn't give a fuck about refunding the money until they got publicly called out and had to turn the waterworks on. they deserve to be dragged
but i don't get this whitewashing claim. at all. both of those pics look like standard cartoon anime shit
it's because the skin tone is a few shades lighter i guess which is hilarious because the references were colored from what i can tell so you could literally just copy the color over.
though this might be from the same people who don't understand ambient lighting and think unless a character has the exact same hex code color skin every time they're being whitewashed so who knows.
white people are so fucking annoying about this shit. listen, i am brown and my shade is not consistent throughout. i'm lighter in some places than i am in others, i'm not just uniformly one shade of brown. i get darker if i'm in the sun for a long time and i get paler if i don't see the sun for a while. in different lighting i can look really fair or really dark.
sorry for the rant here but fuck i just hate this shit. a character being not being the EXACT shade of brown you've allowed yourself to be comfortable with is not fucking whitewashing.
bruh i am agreeing with you i think this shit is stupid too. they seem to consider the art unusable because the skin color isn't the EXACT one in the other art despite them looking basically the same. if i saw those two pieces next to each other i would think it was the same character without issue.
oh okay in that case carry on because yeah it's really really silly
she didn't even look white in the original 'bad' art, she was very clearly brown
the real issue with that art was the weirdly lumpy faces and super generic expressions. i know it's a moe moe anime style thing to severely understate most expressions and basically just copy them from a stock set of faces but if i paid money for icons i would want them to get across more than a stock character
