Charlie Meckel, The Light Pours Through, Oil on linen
Third of 8 sketch animation commissions. The Kirin character belongs to Khan. I tried to took commissions with characters that are radically different from each other. Love animating ferals and humanoids both.

The piece I created for Dames, Fantasy Warriors earlier this year! My idea was a ghostly hellhound knight inspired by the tales of ghost dogs like Black Shuck
Okay I JUST realized I never posted these on here—- BUT BASICALLY, about a year and a half ago I started doing these experimental black hairstyle posts that were threads long on Twitter, to give artists a source of inspo for their black ocs whose hair they wanted to try something new with! There’s more to black hair than just the selected styles portrayed in media, and I thought it would be fun to show people how much texture, shape, fades, length, and style can be combined when drawing black hair—-cause it’s a kind of manipulation our hair can do irl! The OG posts were lost with the hacking of my original Twitter account (@/bagels_donuts) but I’ve since reuploaded the whole thread to my new Twitter (@/ItsDonutsFR)! I hope artists on tumblr find these useful, sorry it took me so long to post them here😭🙏🏾 I’ll upload them all in parts!
