case in point, the dumb controversy around this piece by gomigomipomi. the original piece (1) is very nice, but someone accused her of whitewashing for no reason (2) and "fixed" her art (3). gomi was very polite and explained why it was colored as such (4), which was nice of her.

Some Identity V fan art of my favourites I drew a while ago 💜. I LOVE Enchantress and Forward and I honestly wish people would... Stop whitewashing the shit out of them.

You're not wrong there, but perhaps an example of quite clear whitewashing will help (cropped image). If you didn't know who this character was, would you guess her skin tone was meant to be dark? If the answer is no, you've white-washed. All of the defenders of this artist >>

i just want to say that i do 100% NOT support the whitewashing that was done in season 8 and world of winx

if i start posting scenes from those seasons, i’ll add a trigger warning to make sure everyone knows the characters have been whitewashed before clicking on the video

cordelia and alastair used to be white when the last hours was still in it's early stages, cassie changed their ethnicity later on!! it's not rlly whitewashing because at the time this was designed, they were still white characters.
cjp also has art where they're white btw:

Got accused of whitewashing the other day, ignored the initial comment on insta but I wanna state:
I drew a biracial Indian girl, desaturated her skin tone to fit my palette. In the future I'll darken her skin, but otherwise I feel comfortable to say I didn't draw her white.

Serious question.

Is it whitewashing if I make a black-coded character have pale skin because she’s a dryad made out of birch, and therefore has skin that looks like the bark?

tinha começado a reassistir Venture brothers. É tão maligno quanto eu lembrava, mas tinha esquecido que eles fizeram whitewashing com um dos próprios personagens. Ainda n terminei de reassistir tudo, mas parece que foi sem motivo algum até gora...

A patreon request you know they only paid a dollar for this since it was a maybe next time it will be you if your a patreon. On the real tho all the whitewashing claims are BS If a characters skin tone is lighter that isn't offensive so stop trying to make it. (1-2)

They can't do complex shading in an anime lest the ruin the damn style. It's like my art style, where you do simple shading and then affect shading on a single color base.

That's not whitewashing.

Case and point, interior lighting / lack of sunlight. Its amazing just how blatantly cherry picked the examples of “whitewashing” provided are, ignoring the drastic effect natural light and position of the sun has.
