Hi guys! I was thinking about Disney characters and I'm not sure how I got the idea, but I really wanted to see what it would look like if Moana and Jack Frost switched color palettes. I thought it'd make Jack look like a pretty rad dude with fire powers, but I wasn't sure how it'd look on Moana. But I decided to try it with Moana and Elsa instead, just as fun experiment! Color makes a huge difference! Moana looks like a cool surfer chick, and Elsa looks like a fire queen! What do you think?

💖 Shoutout to Rose, my darling Patron! And Olivia (aka WolfSpirit79), whom I love very much! 💖

P.S. Elsa looks really cool with brown eyes in her original palette. Moana with blue eyes/clothes and her regular palette remind me of a waterbender!

DISCLAIMER:
I know what whitewashing is, and it is indeed a huge problem. But this is not whitewashing. The point of this edit was not to 'make Moana white'. If yoUR intention is to complain about how racist I am, please just stay off this post. You’re taking a problem that does indeed exist, by applying it to a situation where it doesn’t belong. Yes, I happened to make Moana white in this edit. But the point of it was a color palette swap, not a race swap. Had I thinned our her nose, straightened her hair, given her some more traditionally Caucasian features (like many irritating fan arts do), then yes- that would be blatant whitewashing and very insensitive. Had Elsa been any other skin tone, I would have done the same thing. I just wanted to see how it would look with two characters’ colors switched up, nothing more, nothing less. While race is indeed an important issue- it doesn’t have to be problematic all the time.

you could just switch colors without changing their skin colors

You're totally entitled to that opinion, but I was going for a full color swap, not just an outfit swap.

It's unfortunate you have to make a descriptive reason for even making the pic.Ah this world we live in now.

Moving past that tho I really dig how Elsa came out and I think she looks pretty "hot" but Moana I just ain't feeling. I can't put my finger on exactly what it is, I want to say it's something with the face/hair but it just looks odd to me. Her outfit look good tho. That might be my bias for the color blue heh heh.

Hehe thank you so much! I kind of agree. I feel like something about Moana's facial features are just so uncommon with Caucasian people (like her wider nose, thick eyebrows) that it kind of looks offputting to see her with whiter skin. Thank you so much!
