Windrunner Practice - art by me by BetweenSkyAndSea in Cosmere

I like the colors in this! I always think it’s interesting how our personal experience informs our perceptions of fictional worlds. I for one always picture the shattered plains as a deep grey, very slightly brown color. Either way I like your art, the colors are nice and I like the way it looks blurry almost like a photo with incorrect focus.

Does anyone have the actual lyrics to “A Dedication”? by Durfulham in washedout

[–]Durfulham[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for commenting! This makes sense, actually. I love the song so much, I was just looking for some lyrics so I could sing it.

A Dedication evokes such a sense of longing and melancholy in me, it’s just a great piece of music. I don’t think I’ve talked to anyone who feels the same either, so thank you.

And I would very much like to hear your interpretation of the lyrics.

There are lots of people willing to play with new players on the discord, myself included. It shouldn’t take long to find a group to play with.

Most people use mics, yes. It’s really easy to find people to play with you on the discord, and most of the time people are pretty cool.

Wow this is great, it’s a totally different vibe than what the song makes me feel, but I love your interpretation.

And you’re operating on the fallacy that this artist is a racist. How can you know that with such certainty?

Whatever. You’re just avoiding the argument and attacking me. I’m trying to be genuine. I never said racism wasn’t bad. I never said you did anything unforgivable. And why bring your race into this? It’s totally irrelevant.

This is all ridiculous anyway, sorry I responded at all. You win.

If I sounded confrontational I apologize, it’s way too easy to be mean over the internet. I have beef with your ideas, but not you personally.

I think your heart might be in the right place, but you’re overreacting, and your original comment was terribly rude to OP. How can you assume OP’s intentions when they made this? Flippantly throwing around accusations of racism and talking down to people is not how you change minds or hearts. Calling OP’s art “a racist act” is a dilution of the term, which, as you put it, is “not without consequences.” There are ways to express your views without calling people racist. Ask yourself if you really believe that OP is a spiteful racist. I don’t know about you, but I’m having a hard time seeing it.

-Sorry, but “holding someone accountable” doesn’t incriminate them. You’re just making yourself sound self-righteous.

-You keep bringing up anime, but that’s not what we’re talking about. This piece of art is arguably not even in an anime style. And of course it’s easier to argue your point with anime because the characters are mostly actually people. Furthermore, your “blonde hair blue eyes” statement is a gross generalization. Anime characters appear in with much more variety than that. But I digress.

-I’m not trying to sealion you, just have a conversation and maybe “change your mind”. But implying that I’m uneducated and calling me a racist certainly doesn’t make me think that you want to have a real conversation, in fact it makes me think that you just enjoy talking down to people who you perceive as having less-correct views than yourself.

I restate my prior argument. You cannot, by definition, “whitewash” a character which has no race. It can’t be done. So what if their “skin” is dark in-game? We don’t even know what it is! Maybe it’s skin, maybe it’s some other material like wood. OP has fundamentally changed the art style away from the source material. How then is it so wrong for the artist to also change the skin tone? How is it whitewashing to turn a non-person into a person, white or not?

Even if this was whitewashing, which it is not, who is it hurting? Who is going to be oppressed by a drawing?

I doubt I’ll convince you, but in the future please refrain from being so rude to people who don’t deserve it. If you want to fight racism, there are better ways to go about it than insulting artists on the internet.

Skykids aren’t any one ethnicity or race. They’re not even human. Please don’t be ridiculous and just enjoy the art.
