>>41896633>I guess you’re saying dark skin is the defining feature thenNo, I'm saying that all of Lenora's features within the context of each other point to the fact that Lenora is black, and the same is not true for Nessa. How do you dress yourself?
>>41896915>Do you apply this to real people anon?>Like you see a black girl with thin lips and straight hairNo, for two reasons:
The first is that in this hypothetical scenario, the person would be real, and not drawn by an artist.
The second is that actual black people have genetic traits which can be used to visually identify their African ancestry. Even if I couldn't identify them in this fashion, that has absolutely no implications for the common characteristics of the group they belong to and also is irrelevant to the method by which one visually communicates African ancestry through character design (which is by emulating those characteristics).
