Yuletide 2010: What I Did Nominate

[starlady]

For those of you who don't know it, I wholeheartedly recommend the Chromatic Yuletide 2010 challenge hosted by dark_agenda in honor of the late skywardprodigal, who is already much missed.

So I nominated:

Disney Princess Superheroes - chromatic characters are Jasmine, Mulan, and Tinker Bell  Tiana

Magic Under Glass by Jaclyn Dolamore (white creator) - chromatic character is Nimira (pimp post/review here)

White Is for Witching by Helen Oyeyemi - chromatic creator, chromatic characters are Ore and Sade (pimp post/review here)

the Clockwork Century by Cherie Priest (white creator) - multiple chromatic characters including Croggon Hainey

and NPR RPF and Paradise Kiss, which were already nominated.

In the actual bit of artwork that starlady requested from, Tinker Bell is being presented as black, tho it doesn't look like the artist discussed why she did that.

I don't think that character's Tinker Bell-she looks more like Tiana from "The Princess and the Frog", who was black in the original movie.

Huh. Possible. Her outfit is very suggestive of Tinker Bell to me, and otherwise Tinker Bell doesn't feature in the image at all, but you might be right.

You know, I think you're right, based on the flower on her costume. I've amended my submission. Thanks!
