I have a hair-related question. Why does hair color vary, particularly in older animes? E.g. Lynn Minmay in Macross I think has like three different hair colors--brown, blue, and green? There are plenty of other examples of this. There's no implicaiton that Lynn or any other character has dyed their hair. Is it a technical error/continuity issue? Artistic interpretation? Just what did they mean by this?

Dissolving the hair is my favourite undiscovered fetish
Her hair is black, but due to the way shading was done in any given Macross product of the time the chosen "highlight" for artistic reasons changed. Basically the style of the OVA era lead to broad variation on color and shading.
Thank you! That always confused the shit out of me as a kid. Like in one scene character's hair is black, and then in the next scene it's inexplicably a different color.
