Dear nonblack + white selfshippers, implore you to do proper research on your black f/o’s and interact with black selfshippers this month.

Listen to black selfshippers when we talk about the racism we face in this community. Don't speak over us or derail our conversations. Instead uplift our voices! Reblog art from black artists, black writers, black editors, etc.

Those with black f/o’s please make sure your research on antiblackness in your relationships. Don't whitewash your f/o’s. Lightening the skin isn't the only form of whitewashing; loosening tight curls, removing black features such as big noses and big lips. Learn how to draw those features correctly.

selfshippers of color, please never be afraid of depicting your F/Os being immersed in your culture!!!!

draw them wearing traditional clothing with you, write about them trying out your favorite cultural foods, imagine them adopting certain subtle behaviors and traits that you have, etc etc!!!!

be as "self-indulgent" and "out of character" as you want because what matters most is the love you & your f/o have for each other <3

Just in case you forgot… your F/O loves you!

Sharing? Nonsharing? Mirrorsharing? Romantic? Familial? Queerplatonic? Platonic?

Doesn’t matter. Your F/O thinks you’re fucking rad and super cool.

I decided to do an art study similar to nekjyu's chibi art LOL

Yes Jamie's outfit was from a fanart I found on Pinterest, but I don't know who the artist is (please tell me if you know)

Hey YOU, Black/POC self-shipper, or person in GENERAL. Do YOU wanna commission from Crepe, but scared of the artist whitewashing or not being able to draw your character (whether it be textured hair, skin, etc etc)? Well I have a list of resources that I will be updating! And if you have any suggestions, feel free to let me know! I tried to add notes that might be helpful and from my experience.

Burning_nipple — Notes: HIGHLY recommend! Very good with different body types, skin tones and textured hair. One of my favorite artists and genuinely can’t recommend enough! My favorite is the crayon style. They also speak English too!

0taku — Notes: If you don’t mind Gacha/Omakase, recommended! Also speaks English.

naao_0pu — Notes: N/A

1900800B00 — Notes: N/A

hunaksseo — Notes: If you pick the Gacha you can get it within 24 hours, and they also speak English.

pepper_0731 — Notes: N/A

Prwoman06 — Notes: Speaks English, and a big fan of Western media/people (such as Marvel, comics, etc)

bessy_1211 — Notes: N/A

Em_cm — Notes: N/A

anything_ikeru — Notes: The prices are a little pricey and they take a while, but I think it’s 100% worth it. So if you want to treat yourself, I recommend this artist.

No_5 — Notes: N/A

dab_in180 — Notes: I also think this artist is good with textured hair!

sigtam — N/A

Tips for commissioning artists on Crepe: References! References! References! I always encourage using as many references as possible, especially if your S/I has textured hair and you’re sensitive about that. Include real life references for example! It always helps trust me.

Make sure you are CLEAR!! But also respectful! Just because you’re paying them doesn’t mean that they take disrespect. Artists are human too, and have the right to refuse you because you are rude.

It’s always helpful to have a sheet that you can use over and over again for your character. It makes it easier on the artist and you!

If you aren’t sure if an artist speaks English/Japanese/Etc, you can always ask. But I encourage you to translate your request in Korean & English (or whatever other language you want to), you might be surprised by the ones that speak your language.

Happy commissioning! Proship DNI. Make your own.

╭────────༺♡༻────────╮

F/O running their hands through your locs/curls/braids as your head lays in their lap. You’re fighting off sleep because you just have to finish this last episode, or movie. They know you’re sleepy, so they begin gently massaging your scalp to soothe you. While their other arm lays over your side, and their thumb begins rubbing your arm, sending warmth throughout you. You doze off to sleep just from their gentle touches. Your F/O knows how important it is for you to sleep. They never fail to take such good of you…

Your f/o can't get over your kinky/coily hair. Whether you wear it loose or have it done in braids or locs. They love massaging your scalp and helping you oil up your hair when your changing styles.

Your f/o loves your skin color. How it resembles glittering brown gemstones or the sparkling night sky. How soft it is. How it brings out your dark, mesmerizing eyes. Their favorite thing is helping you lotion up after a shower.

Your f/o loves your ethnic features. Your wide nose. Your monolids. Your full, plush lips. Your low cheek bones and gap teeth.

Your f/o loves you for you. Everything about you. Every inch and fold. They adore every feature of yours that society says is unloveable. They love you.

one thing you will never catch me doing is making my self inserts a lighter shade / entirely different race than myself. i don't CARE if it doesnt fit the canon. my f/o loves my dark skin and thats what matters
