I'm trying to get red scales but it won't give me anything other than brown, black or white no matter how many times I try. I've also had it happen on a different character where it would give me anything but black scales.

All right, I think I've found out why it isn't working. It's because its determined by gender, although I'm not sure why that's the case.

We don't have any lore information on pexighasts, but I imagine it's like some real life lizards where the male lizards will have more diverse colour patterns to attract mates.

Whatever the reason, it does seem to be intentional.

I don't really have a problem with the TF having less colour choices because of gender. It's more because 1: scale colour also dictates lip and vagina color (the later of which can't easily be changed) and 2: there are currently no items to easily change scale colour like there are for fur and eyes.

Regardless I've managed to work around it, although it wasn't easy. I just hope that we can get a means of more easily changing scale colour at some point in the future.

An easy workaround would've been just setting your characters preferred gender to male.
