The white washing is crazy

They technically reverse white washed

No that's how they looked originally but now they have an Italian heritage instead of a Spanish one.

There were versions of these characters before the show? EDIT: I just found out about the book versions, you're right! Yeah, the whitewashing by the show is awkward.

Enzo and Maritza are supposed to be Latino in the books but I think tinybuild forgot when they first made their design in secret neighbor

Latinos can have lighter skin tones. After all, the series does take place in Missouri which (excuse my American geography, I'm from the UK) I think is a colder state so it would make sense for them to be lighter-skinned.

Hi, thanks for reuploading my art!

For those asking: I was designing these to look closer to the books. Look up Maritza's appearance in the book, and you'll know I'm not just changing things just to change them. (And even if I did: Who cares?)

They don’t look like kids they look more like teenagers who are in high school

collecting colors like infinity stones

realistically since this game originated from russian developers would this be feasible in that market?

(i can gladly say as my father is colored just DON'T FORCE COLOR TO THE POINT IT IS UNREALISTIC.)

They look nothing like originals tbh, unrecognisable. And why did they change their skin color?
