You're allowed to make characters/character designs just for the sole purpose of having a character that you really enjoy having btw. And before anyone comes in here I'm not talking about gross shit I'm talking about artists feeling ashamed to self indulge or make themselves characters just for comfort, and holding themselves to really strict standards on how their ocs should be. You can just have ocs for fun. It's cool if you're not that focused on how good the story or character is, you can just have them bc you like them. Or even if you do enjoy making complex stories and nuanced characters, you're still allowed to have some that aren't that, ones that are just for your enjoyment, and ones that are the way they are just bc you want them to be exactly that. It's okay. In fact I encourage you to have some characters that you can find joy and comfort in. Indulge yourself alright? <3

Color Reference Guide to Recognize & Avoid Whitewashing

I’ve made a tutorial on how to color adjust to fix washed out colorings, but I noticed people aren’t always sure when their coloring needs fixing in the first place. So I’ve made a bunch of colorings you can use to compare your own to. It’s designed to help avoid whitewashing, but also help avoid over-correction.

If you’re not a content creator, you can also use this guide for reblogging as well. :)

Using the Guide

Each set comes in three: cool, neutral, and warm. If your coloring is bluer/whiter than the cool tone, consider readjusting.

Examples of what might be too pale/bright are beneath each set

There are various categories (daytime, night scenes, etc) for each type of scene you might encounter

Each coloring has a color palette beneath for the highlights, midtones, and shadows of the character’s face. If you’re having trouble eyeballing it, use the eyedropper tool to double check.

NOTES 1) For the sake of simplicity, I’ve used one character per category, but characters of color are not interchangeable. Identify the skin tone for the character you’re coloring and work with that. This is only meant to give a frame of reference for what is and isn’t whitewashing 2) If any of the colorings look different than what they’ve been stated as (i.e. the cool tones look too warm or some look way too dark to be visible) calibrate your monitor. It means your screen color and gamma needs readjustment.

Guide itself is under the read more!
