Void Elf-High Elf Customization Thread

They do have a variant of black color but that doesn’t mean you can’t ask for a more natural toned jet black as well.

You’re not ignoring what we’re saying. You’re ignoring literal colour theory.

You’re ignoring the literal method in which colours are scientifically differentiated and then accusing others of posting fan fiction.

I know I can keep asking for black. That doesn’t mean I have to accept the fiction that the greenish blue hair color that tapers to a low contrast purple at the tips is somehow “black”. It isn’t.

There are multiple shades of black, just as there are multiple shades of any other color.

Look. I don’t care about color theory in regards to this. It’s one thing for there to be a slight tint for highlighting purposes. Even the Void Elf NPC has it, since pure black would make it impossible to see any details of the hair.

This is acceptable to call black as far as I’m concerned:

This is also acceptable to call black, even though it’s probably more of a charcoal.

But this? This is not acceptable to call black as far as I’m concerned. There’s just too much actual color in it to call it black.

Maybe so but this isn’t one of them

You keep linking that style. How dark or not the colour is depends on the hairstyle, and that particular style is the absolute lightest.

I’d have to agree it certainly isn’t dark enough to be black on that style, but it is on a bunch of other styles.

Actual black should look black on every style.

Looks like one to me. You just admitted there are shades of black. You just want a darker black than is available.

By the way, I have paints pretty similar to the color you are decrying as not black, that are in fact labeled black.

Don’t care. It’s not black as far as I’m concerned.

Okay, but colour theory is not for you to agree or disagree with. It’s the method in which we determine what colour a colour is.

I think he means true black, without any blue or green in there

Which is fine but the option available is still an option of black.

But it’s not.

If I decide a shade of a color isn’t actually a shade of that color, that means nothing.

No, he means a deeper black, like this:

You can still see blue in there, it’s just a darker and less saturated colour.

Correct. And calling that greenish blue that tapers to desaturated purple at the tips “black” doesn’t make it so.

We get that, but the issue is that just because the blacks aren’t pure black doesn’t mean they aren’t black.

You can’t on the one hand say it’s not black because it’s not a specific shade and then describe the colour it is by using non pure examples of other colours, sorry.

You’re the one who just said

In response to Avarie pointing out this color is even labeled as black

You said you don’t care, it’s just odd since you’re accusing others of fan fiction.

Like you don’t need to argue for the color variation from a place of not having another option, and it doesn’t matter someone you seem to not show respect to was one of the people who pointed out a fact.

Like it’s hard to see you accuse others of fiction and then when people point out more facts you wave it off and continue.
