yes
or I mean, white washing can apply to humans to (*cough* kpop singers *cough*) but I feel like it's mainly just roles in ex. where white people play non white characters

I don't think they do it to be offensive or something. THey might just find it easier to design lighter skins. But ofc maybe you shouldn't design a character if you can't make the skin right, it could give the wrong message.

I can't draw dark skins, wish I could since I find it extremly gorgeous. But I'd never make the skin light on a known character.

if u base your design on a character that is not white but turn them white it's whitewashing

thats a bad thing but idk if that actually happens a lot in designs, dont most folks design their ocs/just random outfits they like?
but a thing that personally annoys me a lot @ VP hobby designers is when they make a black skin, but just take an old white skin they made and turn down the brightness or lumination, instead of actually designing a dark skin. 
not just hobby designers 
well i think its ok as long as you use it as a way to learn how to shade, i had trouble shading darker skin so i made a reference and took reference photos but if theres white facial features im kinda like

Is there any word of the opposite? Like if you make a white character dark?
