Well technically a few of them are greys but that is beside the point.

Please excuse me but will the devs please clarify exactly what the shade number entails?

Is it 192 shades all races will share across hair, skin, markings etc
Is it 192 shades per race?
With the transparent options of certain shades count as a whole new shade?

Currently you can see in the Alpha videos that Miqote F have:
16 skin shades
32 hair shades
32 hair highlight shades
Video here; around 3 min mark

But skin shades are already shared with the other races as is highlights to hair.

So, will the increased number of shades mean instead of 32 options on hair we will have more options per character? Or is 32 the set number and the palette is only increasing because the number of choices between races is increasing?
