    If I can't be darkened enough, then it's not edgy enough for DRK to wear, unfortunately.

    Okay this is a little stretched. The literal definition of blackface is "used to refer to the practice of wearing makeup to imitate the appearance of a black person". if you're just wearing black makeup for a clown getup it's definitely not the same.

    I'm not talking about the edge factor, I mean it looks washed out compared the rest of the facepaints.

Nothing like the art for the event advertisement.

    Edit: I'm not talking about the edge factor, I mean it looks washed out compared the rest of the facepaints. Even if you use red to try and duplicate the face from the promo art it ends up looking washed out in comparison.
    I find this is a problem with most of the face paints, they are not dark enough even with the 'dark' option selected. They are also faded or completely different colors than the color shown on the options menu. Those colors do not match what ends up on your PC's face. Also no real red option sucks, this face paint would look cool in a ruby red.
