I agree completely, but he won't respond and people will gaslight and attack you for telling the truth, especially as a Black woman.
Artists like him who are not used to drawing Black characters I can let slide, but the whitewashing is plainly obvious with so many others.
Ross isn't a racist, but the majority of the artist community is and only likes the aesthetics of white/east Asian appearing characters. We shouldn't be trying to convince them to draw dark skin when they clearly refuse to, otherwise, it'll just continue to be disrespectful.
Black artists will have to step up and be the change we want to see. Luckily there are some great artists on here like GDBee , ActionKiddy , FreeMech and Messiah972 that have beautiful art of dark-skinned characters and are seriously underrated on this site. Please check them out and support their art!

I just looked up Nessa (as well as other fan art) and the skin tone seems pretty accurate to me lol. Just has some warmer, orange undertones to it.
Whatever, other people can disagree, but I think it's a beautiful piece, Ross! <3

ross, if you can't draw dark skinned women, then just don't. stick to what you know instead of lightening us and indirectly suggesting that our dark skin color is a problem.

you're a dumbass. she's clearly lighter in his art. her skin is a deep brown the same shade as mine.
i don't have an issue with ross, but he has drawn black people (lupita) with dark skin so why he lightened nessa here is odd.

says the group that gets angry when hermoine is drawn as black, even though the creator is fine with all racial interpretations of her characters.
he can draw what he wants, and people will continue to call out whitewashing as much as we want.

if you can't draw minorities properly, then don't. minority artists can draw and create our own characters.
i would rather you only draw what you know then make us look white or like minstrel shows.

Not necessarily. They're definitely petty shitheads, but that's not the reason people rarely (by comparison) make minority characters. You shouldn't use their ignorance as justification for more ignorance

Has Nintendo stated that she is supposed to be black? She looked more Indian in the Direct to me then anything.

what a good art you have here, this is not whitewash ross, don't pay no attention towards this in trouble trolls that are nothing but disgrace towards artists that work hard.
these trolls don't know what sun Reflection is since I see bit water here that shows the theme of water type and a beach. So they don't know what Primary Brown types are because they don't know skin colors can have shine Reflections from Suns, Lights from tournaments Also from in houses and many places.

so uh, about those "ShE iS bLaCk" comments,
i want to let them know that this artstyle has a specific rule about coloring, and that is "Light Coloring" like Pastel Colors and other colors that focus on a more aesthetic and cutesy style, their coloring is mostly light shaded, so this art by ross is perfectly fine, even the fanart by the artist najuco is also perfectly fine because that's the artstyle's rule, it has to be light shaded
in pastel colors most characters that are painted white are seriously white
in ross' artstyle is also the same, the white colors are a bit toned down and its a bit hard to notice (I don't get how you guys can notice the difference in color in terms of this specific fanart)
also this is really good -3-

Everything to you is ''whitewashing'' this is getting to get very old your reflections about white people drawing black people. You are being a kid, get lost.

lmao, you can't silence black people and that kills you. get over it. i have a right to speak out about whatever i want, and racism will always be at the top of that list.
if you can't deal with it, ignore me. otherwise, you can shut the fuck up as well because you people will continue to be called out on your shit.

You are the one that should be quiet on this, you very immature and you cannot handle it to be called out on it. You crying out loud but like i think you are too blind on how you are acting. Is insulting others your speciality? I think you should get some help cause your brain isn't working correctly. You are racist towards white people drawing black people isn't it wonderfull to be a crackhead? Because i am sure it is for you. Grow up or else i may have to call Deviantart support on you for harrassing artists.
Pick your poison.

i haven't harassed anyone, criticism isn't reportable offense on DeviantArt. nobody is stopping the artist from making their shitty art, people are criticizing them for whitewashing dark characters.
racism towards white people doesn't exist. cry harder becky.

kyokohimee In reply to peaachi [2019-09-07 11:11:48 +0000 UTC]
This is legitimately not a criticism coming from you or your ''friends'' if you have even one that is. You have been more than critisizing artists, good that you are admitting that you are ''not harrassing artist anymore'' which is false because you are still at it not only harrassing the artist that draw it but insulting every others artists that replies to you because you have been pathetic in your comments, what's next? are you going to say ''tanned'' people is whitewashing too?Nessa isn't tanned i am aware but i am sure a lot of your inexisting friends attacked for example Sakimichan for her Nessa artwork on facebook or other social media just because she putted lightning effects on it. This drama have been going on for months now, valid criticism is acceptable on Deviantart but this is going too far now. You step back from harrassing/insulting others artists or you will be reported.
