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!
At risk of sounding like a hater and an asshole this looks like AI and if its somehow not, the editor who reworked images and sharpened them up made it look like AI
This is the actual image (from a 6 year old reddit post so def not AI). Either someone asked AI to recreate it or AI, being the plagiarism machine it is, was asked for a pic of dogs finding humans in the snow and just ripped off the first image it could find. Another reminder that AI doesn't actually create anything. Also real cute dogs.
“if you’re plus sized you can just shop on shein/amazon/cider, they have a good selection!!” yeah but i don’t want to rely on fast fashion. i think fat people deserve more ethical and high quality clothing choices
thank you! i know i’ve reblogged this before, but since i’m running a sale in my store right now i figured it might be a good time to reblog it again!!
i have online stores based in the US and UK and my clothing is made with certified ethical labor. my circle skirts fit sizes XS-8X and everything else comes in sizes S-6X. and the skirts have pockets deep enough to fit an entire nintendo switch!

i spent $32 on this fucking bowl at the moma and at first i felt bad buying it bc it was so expensive but ive had a terrible day today and every time i look at my lil bowl im like :o) you know what. i can get through anything with this bowl by my side
I don’t know how long I’ve been here. Time seems to pass differently. But the place is cozy and private so I have no complaints. And whenever I’m hungry, I go outside with my bowl and walk down the hill to the shore. Sometimes the lake is made of soup. Sometimes it’s huge pasta noodles the size of barges. Sometimes it’s breakfast cereal. Sometimes it’s dumplings the size of great whales. I dip my little bowl and take a portion and carry it back up to the house.
Today I found a new bowl! In its center is a little hill with a little house. I will carry it down to the shore and fill it up, and whomever lives in that little house can have a tiny portion of my meal. I hope they have a nice bowl to put it in..

Close ups and design rabbling below vvvv
Our hero, everybody loves them, who can blame them? They're just a charming lad! Dressed in hand me downs, Kris can't seem to let go of the past or their brother who is off to college. To remedy that they wear Asriels' old sweaters, hanging onto that scent of the past... Toriel has tried to fix up many of their clothes but Kris enjoys the feeling of well worn, a new stitch would just ruin that... they keep their favorite sweater together with Safety pins that lay just above that wretched Soul of theirs. Below all of that are much more fitting clothes, the pressure calms them down and hides their skin... the fabric lets them think that maybe one day removing their gloves will reveal the fur they have longed to be given, hiding their human nature.
The dark world offers a more simpler look, wearing their heart out on their sleeve, Kris has taken a more blue shade blending them into the shadows. Instead their soul stands out against their design, after all that's what all they are there for... to house this angel... Armour placed half hazardously upon their body to protect them from harm, or atleast... their soul.
The girl ♡ Dressed in unwanted garb at the bottom of the bargin bin, Susie has still found ways to make her fashion stand out. Tearing off her sleeves after her adventure in the dark world, a sign that she has shedded just a bit of that insecurity off herself. But can't ignore the number one statement piece of who wrecked those pants, she works with it even pulling a few threads out herself. Her childhood adventures decorates her skin, but signs of bad habits knaws at her hands. Still she prides herself on showing off that she has indeed lived.
In the darkworld she has allowed herself to be embraced by kindness of her new found friends. Her colors shines and stands out against the world to really hear that calling. Her hair waves like flames, her smile charming. Yet spikes decorate her limbs to almost let others know too stay a good arms length away from her or you'll get poked. But man, you gotta see those stars that have scattered across her face.
Prince of the dark, once shielding himself from the world in shadows, he now shows off his colors. Perhaps inspired by the proudness of his dinosaur friend? His identity still keeps those confused, is he a rabbit? A goat? Why should he be so worried about such trivial things. Gold new lines his robes, his statues of prince shines out, yet he never holds that over anyone. A soft and fluffy boy he is indeed.
Princess of ice and snow! Noelle stands out with her festive sweaters (having over 100!! Wowie!!) But let's not skip over that impressive bow collection that sits right next to it! Each steps a bell rings, signaling to others that a Holiday is here! But her warm coat and kind eyes kept help but make you feel cozy, that's what she strives to express. She is kind and thoughtful, a people pleaser at worst... but isnt it the spirit of the holidays to just keep on giving? Someone get this sweet girl a hug and play her favorite true crime podcast ASAP!
Her dark world form almost shields away that warms, now expressing those more cold aspect of the holidays. Yet to lead the way her red noise shines bright! Soft robes now cover her from head to toe. A sugarplum princess awaiting her savior. Let's just hope no blizzards come up!
Oh! Its a bird! Its a plane! Its- oh wait yeah its a bird... It's Berdly! Here to show off that he infact is better than all the rest, thats why I saved the best for last right? (Don't look at me! Idk! He's the last one i drew) Everyday he prides himself im becoming the Alpha of his class! Even if he isn't wolf... or a mammal...or... well- DONT WORRY ABOUT THAT!! With a underlayer that keeps his feathers nice and neat he gets to proudly show off his super cool and smooth as silk button up! That he definitely hasnt been wearing everyday for the last... year- never mind that!
His dark form reveals his true colors! Bright! Standout! No longer a simple blue bird, no... he might as well be a peacock! He sure shows off like one. How can anyone look away from his awesome amazing clearly a protagonist fit? With super sick leg hair(in need of preening feathers) too match! The ladies will be at his claws in no time, tch- (is he gone yet? Can I type normally again?)
(Its 2 AM... why am I like this)
Welp that's that for now, toodles!!! Reblogs appreciated ♡♡♡
