(Oh and sorry for skipping all earlier messages.
Because of this, Professor Willow's bobbing animations and simple dialogue have become staples for event research explanations, and the. And I promise you I’ll make it right next time. While team leaders Candela, Spark, and Blanche were widely popular during the game's launch, Pokmon GO has made little use of them in Special Research Stories or overarching event storylines in recent years. Next time I draw a fan art of these two, i’ll be more careful. I’m asian and I didn’t realize that this could be a pretty sensitive issue. Blanche’s Mystic program is for high school students who are seriously considering working in the pokemon sciences as a career. So that was my huge mistake for not paying enough attention to them. Candela’s campouts are the highlight of the program, where she takes her group out into the woods for a weekend to get a hands on experience with catching wild pokemon, and teach them basic survival skills. I didn’t even notice that I made Candela and Blanche look so white, almost the same color as Dipper and Mabel until you guys pointed it out. (The effect makes things look brighter and more saturated.) I adjust it to the point that I thought my GF characters look okay for me. And after I colored everything I merged all the layers and I adjust color of the whole thing using Soft Light efffect.
What i did is that I look at the official art, and I noticed that these two have dark skin tone so I picked a color that was slightly darker than what I actually use for coloring skin as a base color. I should have been more careful with every characters I put in the picture. The thing is, this one piece I drew, I mainly focus on the GF characters, which was obviouly my mistake. So yeah, I got some messages asking why did I whitewash Candela and Blanche, so I’m gonna answer all of them in this one post if that’s okay. Why is Candela so pale in your fan art? She's obliviously darker than Blanche and Spark? I'm not trying to start shit, but your art style is cute and it's a shame she didn't look like herself.įirst of all, thank you for your kind words.
