How to select all children in local script

[granite vault]

I'm fairly new to coding and are making a local script to randomize the races you are when joining the game, but i didn't know how to select the children inside the model and change the skintone of the custom starter character made for the races, so I went off some things i thought would work

It simply doesn't work, nothing comes in output

extra info, i put it down to 1,2 instead of 1,11 so i can see if one of the races work before going onto coding the rest

Instance:GetChildren gives u a table.
so if you want to change every item inside that table you can use a for i loop.

local Children = Model:GetChildren()
for i,v in pairs(Children) do
  print(v:GetFullName()) --will print the whole path of the children.
  if v:IsA("BasePart") then --checks if its a basepart
    --change the color of the basepart here?
  end
end

another thing i wanted to mention;
you can get the Player's Character using the Player.CharacterAdded event.

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr) --fires the event when the player is added.
  plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char) --fires the event when the player's character is added.
    print("character added.")
  end)
end)

you can reference the player's character using the first paramater of Player.CharacterAdded

for _,v in pairs(Character:GetChildren()) do

    if v:IsA("Part") then 

        v.Color = Color3.fromRGB(NUMBER,NUMBER,NUMBER)

    end

end

Greatest Explained better, just ignore what i send

thanks

by the way i had a question

does the script being a local script do anything with printing because nothing would print when i did a local

[lime crescent]

the only time a localscript fires is in player-based items.
for example the player, StarterGui, StarterPack, StarterPlayer and even the player's character. those are played based items becuase of course these items get located inside the player's instance. so if the local script is paranted in workspace it really wouldnt work becuase its not in a player based item.
