Thank you! I've wanted to make a poc OC for a while but didn't want to mess it up. This is a really great guide.

This is awesome!! I'm not good enough at human art to really detail facial features yet (my noses are pretty much just a line and my eyes are awful LOL), so all my drawings look the same shakskfk. This is super helpful and I'll definitely keep this in mind. I love the tips on skin color!!

marking! though, I might ask some advice... Hubble, you've seen my art style... Cartoony, very simple, close together in appearance... Occasionally prone to Same Face Syndrome... Any tips for making a very, VERY simple art style (when it comes to facial features) proper for skin coloring, or is that unnecessary/alright to fudge a little?

My biggest tip for that is to look at how cartoons and other similar forms of media do it. No style is too simple to be inclusive, and I suggest experimenting often if you want to branch out and make more distinct characters!

Your wording has given me Severe Inspiration... Especially the word experiment. Muehehhe. I am gonna make my content Very Good... But In That Evil Way. (And maybe take a note from Animal Crossing when it comes to eyes - unrelated to this post but... I do need to work on different eyes.)

this is honestly really great, i've seen adopts that have POC and they just look dead due to their skin tone not being vibrant enough
i personally don't draw humans, but still love this



also do you think sometime in the future you may be able to do something like this on dog fur textures? Like poodle fur vs lab fur vs old english sheepdog fur? idk just random thought (dont listen to me lol)
