The Gamut XP - Skintones!

Back at it again. I updated and added to my old The Gamut skintones for The Gamut XP. 98 swatches, all unnaturals this time from The Gamut XP, plus 5 from the older palette, not in The Gamut XP normal pallette. I've also toned down some of the brightness on some swatches but they are still very vibrant! Generous slider range. 3 options. Human (random allowed), Fantasy (for humans, but not random), and Aliens only. Download on Patreon or SFS for free. Links under the cut. Enjoy!

Mainly stuff like colorism and texturism. I visited that side of the family recently and the first time a family member meets me, he touches my curly hair without asking and asks if it’s real (What if it hadn’t been? That’s a really weird thing to ask. A white person would have been corrected). And then, because he’s partially blind, he asks “What color? Blond?” in this horribly hopeful way.

And my grandmother does a very similar thing every time she visits me too. This Black woman stands there telling me how my hair is so pretty and comparing me to my (more Black & more African American presenting) half sisters, and this time claimed that I look like “this one movie star” (I look nothing like; it’s only the fact that I have lighter skin and curls).

And now my youngest half brother came out lighter than the others even though he’s less mixed than me. And she’s comparing us and how “people will know those two are related. They look just alike.” I feel bad for the kid if he darkens up as he gets older (which is likely) because she already has him on a pedestal, it seems.

Well, Lawrence's character in the movie was British, and he actually looked quite similar in real life too, but Petmes is Egyptian, so he doesn't look like that :D
