Ways your filters can affect a brown character's skin tone, and what to do to avoid making them look strange : Newbie Edition.

First, allow me to explain my guide. Both images are cut in half, one affected by the colors, one unaffected. The right images will be greyscale, so you can see the differences in their skin tone. The right half of both of the images are unaffected, the left one has the coloring.

Today we discuss soft lights and overlays with colors. Later, we will discuss using soft lights and overlays using actual images / texturing. This guide is only mostly relevant to ibis paint users.

The filters on these are soft light (left) and overlay (right) at 100% opacity for #66abc7. Soft Lights are not aggressive with their coloring, Overlays absolutely are. You should be careful to not only not whitewash them, but also make sure that they are still recognizable as a brown / dark skinned character.

How to avoid this issue : Lower the opacity of the filter, change the color to be less saturated.

Left - Soft Light (Color : #598799), Right - Overlay (Opacity : 25%).

Some notes : When an Overlay filter is more translucent, it mimics the effects of a Soft Light. They are essentially the same filter, one is simply more vigorous. General note of thumb, blue-washing is really easy to do, which is why blue in general is not a recommended color to edit with for brown / dark skinned characters.

When using this guide, only implement these tactics if necessary after you have finished or created a general idea for your PSD or coloring. It will be too difficult to do it beforehand. Another reminder, if your coloring is not intended to be shared, and / or only meant to be used on your own edits for a pale skinned character, this guide is irrelevant.

"editblr doesnt have any poc issues stfu" Yes it fucking does. you guys constantly make characters who are whitewashed the center of your themes, or otherwise YOU waterwash characters with dark skin tones. you speak over editors of colour with such a casual, uncaring frequency that it has become The Norm in your heads.

also, that's not the only issue. you guys are way too fucking comfortable being heinous people — you would rather spend hours pedantically discussing the morals behind using labels, one's consumption of dark media or even worse, the way people describe their experiences than listen to any of the REAL issues at hand. issues involving people struggling to have peace, wellbeing/health, or the basic survival — you are selfish for this, and your pleasant or cutesy aesthetics do not save you from this; no matter who you are or have been.

somehow, that's not even the end of it, which is ridiculous — too many of you are comfortable with the idea of shunning, harrassing and suicide baiting people for the most pesky, stupid things. people saying slurs that they can reclaim (in THIS context; using slurs as insults is not reclaiming them) is not gonna lay you sick in bed. someone liking the same character as you should not be a justification for you to mistreat, harrass and tell people to kill/harm themselves. that's nasty, immature, and it deserves to be called out accordingly. NEVER will it be alright to do these things, even when you think its for a good cause, because people that are "prohlematic" to you lot are often just different in a way you disapprove of (and even then, youre doing something heinous, stooping at a real bad person's level)

additionally, i dont care if you as a person of colour dont agree with this (thats your own internalized racism/colorism to undo with yourself) — so many people like yourself have been saying that the shit going on around here makes them uncomfortable, hurt, and ultimately makes them unsafe. do not fucking derail this post to say that i cannot say this due to being white, because people i love and care about are affected by this, and i shouldnt expect them to say things about their own pain. none of us should.

i'm dead serious. too many of you are quiet and comfortable being shit people, especially when it comes to "proving" your own morals. people that are anywhere near you FEAR disagreeing publicly because you people are so insufferable it bleeds into their mental health & even PHYSICAL wellbeings. you guys need to be humbled ASAP, because the high like + follower counts are throwing you into power trips that dont really exist outside of this platform— you need to grow up, or people around you will outgrow you and leave you behind.

i am not the first to say this, and i will not be the last. if you see somehing, say something. stop defending your friends because they're popular and you want graphics— call them out on their behavior. PREFERRABLY, DO IT PRIVATELY, AND DON'T DRAG PEOPLE INTO IT. thanks.
