Unpaintbucketable Nigger, as the name implies, is a variant that contains an excessive amount of detail, which makes it extremely time consuming and unpleasant to try and color him using the traditional paint bucket tool of image drawing software like MSPaint.
History[edit | edit source]
Unpaintbucketable Nigger originates from the SoyBooru and is notable for his extremely unnecessarily detailed hair that makes it overly difficult for him to be colored. Usually, Soyjaks with too much detail are frowned upon as that makes edits of them harder to be made, complicating a defining feature of jakking culture. Although, here the entire joke is purposefully taking this concept to the extreme, and while purposefully shitty jaks have existed before, those are usually bad for aesthetic reasons while this one is unique for intentionally for purposefully inhibiting a core functionality of jakking culture itself, that even the coaliest variants have, thus making Unpaintbucketable one of the rare examples of a dadaist soyjak. He layed dormant on the booru for years, as no one seemed to have interest on trying to work with a variant that is meant to be unusable. It remained this way until being revived in 2024 and 2025, primarily by Rot.[2] Some comments indicate that Unpaintbucketable might also have originally been a variant:unknown and the name was coined by Rot himself.[3]
How to Paint Bucket him[edit | edit source]
Although it is a huge waste of time, it is indeed possible to paint bucket him by coloring every single pixel individually, the thing is that nobody will be wasting their finite time on planet Earth doing this. An effective way and quick way to properly color him is by using the similar color selection tool from software like Krita or Gimp, which can let you select and quickly color only the white parts without ruining the detail on his beard. Alternatively, you can open a new layer on your image editing software of choice, set it to Multiply, and then simply color xim as you wish. Once you're done, don't forget to flatten the layer. (This is a much faster method)
