Rundown:

rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

just don't photoshop icons the maker's said you shouldn't (if it's something little like eye color some may say yes if you ask them) and you're golden

what dicey territory were you thinking of? whitewashing/tanning? frankenpbs?

As I'd be altering them like that I'll probably just do them myself so permissions shouldn't be a problem from that angle.

Skintone is my biggest issue right now though, unfortunately. I'm finding pbs that are fine expression/facial structure wise but I just cannot see this character as white no matter how far I tilt my head. I don't think this would be as much of an issue if I were looking in an older age bracket but uh, there's a surprising dearth of non-white child actors apparently.

i think you might get some shit for essentially doing black/brownface on white pbs but i'd be willing to go look for some non-white kid actors for you if you gave a character description/age range!

Yeah that's what I was worried about :( I'm not that desperate yet but I figured I'd go ahead and ask.

but omg thank you for the offer! Still looking myself but I am completely open to suggestions. She's about 12 years old, mixed race (and when i say mixed I mean like a little of everything, the ambiguously brown trope is kind of at play here) with straight dark hair, and is kind of a scruffy street kid so obvious makeup/disney star wardrobes wouldn't make a lot of sense. A lot of this is negotiable/subjective though too so I'm willing to take a look at almost anything at this point.

How about Keke Palmer? She was 11 in the movie The Wool Cap. I'd say these are as street-kid icons as you can get, so hopefully her appearance is what you're looking for.
