...  In what way?  Skin color, features?  My color pallet was taken from a sprite from SF3 when she had a more "orange-ish" skin tone.  Since she's made the jump to 3d, I've noticed that Capcom has been coloring her a little darker.  And I chose to put her in a bright, sunny environment for this picture so the light would also make her appear lighter.   It is not my intention to offend or illustrate characters incorrectly, part of why you might think she looks "white" in this pic is merely my personal art style.  I often use slightly larger eyes and slim noses and that might make it appear as I'm making characters more "white" but I'm not.   Thank you for your comment and I hope this clears up any confusion about my design choices for this picture. this is the link to the page I got my references from www.fightersgeneration.com/cha…

Not trying to come off racist but it seems a lot of people been making dark skin characters lighter and even tho if she was in the sun she wouldn't be that lighit looks like she bleached her skin, not trying to start an argument just saying but ok if u say so

I've noticed that too.  Sega made Vanessa from Virtua Fighter lighter in 5, Tecmo made Lisa from DOA lighter when 5 came out.  And even that Capcom side scroller with the genie girl has been lightened too.  I also found this to be a disturbing trend.  I don't take any of your comments as racist, I'm black,  I actually like the fact that you gave me some honest feedback. Your gallery is pretty cool too,  I really like your Chun li pic

Glad that my guess was right and you had fun

You should draw Janet Lyze from

but with her hair from DDR 5thmix

You would do her justice
