This is not so in animation. Animators, whether they're drawing cartoon characters or building models for a video game, have the freedom to make or draw anything they want. Thus, the normal range of human skin colors needn't have any bearing on the appearance of cartoon characters. Want your characters to be blue, orange, and silver? Go right ahead! Want a dude with a purple face to live next door to a green skinned, not from space babe? The freedom's all yours, pal! If the characters are Genre Blind, their unnatural skin tones will probably go unnoticed. If not, this might be Hand Waved in different ways or lampshaded.
