Some more Idul explorations...working on figuring out common skin tones, featuring one of my personal favorites: the butter face in a dark turtleneck. The plant life on the Idul's planet is on the red side, think dark oranges to the sort of purplish red-black some plants have. Sort of a dark autumnal look. Patterns and overall colors can vary a lot of course, but you would most often see the darkest skin in the plains, the penguin-like colors in the tundras and taigas and the orange in the forests. I don't think they tan, and they have a fairly aggressive sun that's brighter than ours, so their coloration correlates pretty heavily with skin protection. In fact being fungus people, those with very dark skin might actually metabolize radiation in addition to being highly resistant to it. those with orange skin would be considered very pale, and should cover up in open areas if out by daylight. Their faces on the other hand are almost universally lightly colored and covered in something like very dense, very short fur. It would have a sort of soft velvety feel, like when a mushroom has grown some mycelium over itself. Next up is to figure out patterns....I have some thoughts about stripes and spots...
