autisticanathema: anordinaryadventurer: Five Colors Five Titans After drawing four skyward sword characters with five colors, I was wondering if I could do the same with another team. After the initial sketch, I realized the drawing could be tiled. But this is only really useful if you wanted to make Teen Titans wrapping paper…. In Wht world is vic the same shade as star and rob? Bc tht world shitty as hell 0/10 I nvr want to see tht world again I’m just going to put this here because at least one other person was confused by this already. I don’t think Cy should be white or be the same shade as Rob or Star. This was a color exercise to see if I could represent a team of varied people with a limited number of colors. Its a fun graphic challenge and usually leads to interesting color combinations. I originally had them as different skin tones but didn’t want to add a darker tone for use in only one instance. Its not efficient color use for this exercise and “Five Titans Six Colors” doesn’t sound as good. So I tried to find the middle between Star, Robin, and Cy’s skin tones. There are a lot of other middles too. Like BB’s green skin and Cy’s blue circuits. And Robin’s red uniform, Raven’s blue cloak, and Star’s purple uniform. Its not supposed to be the real colors, just an approximation for graphic purposes. I can see how it might come across as whitewashing, but that was not the intent at all. Rest assured, I also never want to see a world where Star, Robin, and Cy have the same color skin. In fact, I think that none of the five should have the same skin tone. Diversity forever!Edit: I’ve done a lot of research and thinking about race lately. And I don’t think I do a good job at apologizing with the above response. Although it was not my intent, do I want to apologize to anyone who took offense, any people who thought I was trying to make Cyborg white, and especially to any POCs who felt I was trying to erase their race. I made a mistake and I have since been corrected. As a POC myself, I care a lot about this issue and I won’t make the same mistake again. Thanks. -- source link
