It's not your skin that's bad, it's your attitude.
Madome, what makes ppl think its just a recolor is the thick black toony lines going in a few places which contrast too much skillwise to the rest.
I know, but im evil too, so we are a perfect team. Though i dont use smudge that much. Only when i really cant fix the difference between light and darksmudge is EEEEVVVVIILLL
I suggest you stop using dodge, burn, smudge, etc. immediately. They are absolutely useless tools. Any short term beneficial effect ultimately will be outweighed by hindering your ability to grow. Use brushes. If you need something darker then use a darker color. If you need something lighter then use a lighter color.
