Sam Kieth died, the creator of The Maxx. This one fucking sucks. The Maxx was what got me into comics. It was hugely important to teenage me. I still have all my Maxx comics, figures, cards, shirt, hat and DVD. I watch the show at least once a year. Julie Winters is hugely important to me still.

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!

and if you want real life inspo, theres some great black influencers out there who love to show the versatility of black hair! i really love @shesasolarbeing on instagram! heres some examples of what she does:
