Hi, I'm Chark! Comms Open on my Kofi! https://linktr.ee/Charkhoes My main OCs are Ben (little dog guy), Chuck (my fursona) and Vile (grey and green wolf) so expect to see em a bunch
THIS BLOG IS A SAFE SPACE FOR LGBTQ+ AND OTHER MINORITIES!
Hi I'm Chark, my real name is Chuck or Charlie, and I do art for fun and hope to turn it into my fulltime career. I usually draw animals/furries but occasionally draw humans. I love my OCs and hope you love em too! Ofc I also do fanart for whatever my current hyperfixation is on lol
Also this blog is definitely at least like 16+ at times so if you're younger than that uh... shoo go away
My other blog
Commissions are open on Kofi (you can find that and more on my linktree in my bio)
To those who can't read my handwriting my handles (in order relative to the image) are: charkhoes, charkhoes.bsky.social, charkhoesart, madadhlasrach, and charkhoesart.
My FAQ and Fun Facts under the cut:
Q: Tf is your username? A: Madadh Lasrach is Scottish Gaelic for (a rough translation) of Charred Wolf, which was my previous username before my friends came up with Chark Hoes, which is a play-on-words of my irl name and I thought it was funny so I made it my main handle lol.
Despite the fact that I am a furry artist and can only draw men lol, I am a straight man (soooo many people think I'm gay lol) I'm an ally though ofc. Straight men are allowed to like doomed yaoi lmao /silly
I'm also a musician, I went to a music school for 4 years and I play guitar and piano
I have Crohn's Disease
Yes I'm autistic lmao (Audhd to be specific) (yes, diagnosed)
I'm ambidextrous and choose to write and draw with my left hand out of spite and pure pettiness
Q: Art programs? A: I mainly use Ibispaint X and Medibang Paint Pro. Whatever program I used is always tagged in my posts. (I use an older kinda pirated version of medibang though lol– I ain't paying 60 smth dollars for an art program that used to be free lmao)
This took me around 5 hours to draw. Oof. I like it tho!
Yeah so these are most of my current OCs, from left to right starting from the bottom/middle, we have Ben (gay), Vile (aromantic and on the asexual spectrum), Gold (super gay), Hunter (pansexual and aromantic), and Chuck (straight and trans ftm)
I haven't drawn Hunter in a long time lol, but I really like him so I might start drawing him more often yippee
Drew my friend's Khajiit OC as their birthday gift! His name is Do'mino hehe. I hope they like it :D
I'm not gonna tag them cus yknow its supposed to be a surprise lol but you can find more of my friend's characters and their own art at their toyhouse under the user otter_popztar
I dont actually remember if I've mentioned this on my blog before but in case I haven't for those who care:
I am a proud ally of the lgbtq+ community, and I'm also a trans man!
Gonna draw some pride month themed art of all my characters throughout the month so get ready for that!
Little transition storytime under the cut for those interested ⬇️
I'm a transgender man (ftm, he/him), I came out when I was 6 years old and started my social transition when I turned 7. Yes I know that is very early and I'm very lucky to have been given the opportunity to start as soon as I did. I have a very supportive parent who actually listened to me and got me professional help as soon as she realised all the signs I was giving.
I started seeing lots of gender specialists, therapists, psychologists, and etc and when I was 10 I started going on puberty blockers. This meant that I never went through female puberty. Which is fucking awesome btw. Never had a period. Never got tits. :D
When I was 14 I started taking HRT (testosterone) and finally began male puberty. I was stealth for a long time (this means I didnt tell anyone I was trans and just passed as a cis man) because I was scared, but then when I was 15 I felt more safe and so I came out to all my friends and started to be proud about my journey and stopped keeping it my secret and burden. I no longer hide that I'm trans, but I dont make it my entire identity either. I view myself as just a regular man that just happened to be born a little different.
I turned 18 in January and recently just started my surgical transition by getting a full hysterectomy. It went very well and now I'm on track to getting bottom surgery in the (hopefully) near future!
I'm proud in my journey so far and I'm very happy living as my true self. I've been fully transitioned as a man far longer than I had been trying to live as a girl and despite all the hardships I've been through and the state of the world right now, I'm excited for the future and I've never been happier.
Sometimes I feel a little distant from the rest of the queer community, given that I transitioned so early and I'm a very low-key, traditionally masculine straight white man lol, but damn it pride month is for me too and I'm gonna celebrate!
Anyways this was just a very long way of saying that I heavily support the queer community, trans people, trans youth especially, the use of puberty blockers & early transitions, and etc. Have a lovely pride month everyone :D
I was bored so I drew the TADC cast (minus caine) as furries
As always close ups and yap session under the cut
Coming up for the designs of each character was fairly easy and I knew what animals I was gonna make them all. The main challenge was Zooble, I wasn't sure what to do and what to include and just ended up settling on my own chimera design and matched the colours and patterns and then made their head to be a triangle shape. Was gonna give them wings too but I got lazy lol
I really liked the idea of Gangle being a cobra, not just because it would make sense because gangle's body is just a ribbon and a snake is just a scaley noodle, but also I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to make the hood be one of her masks. I wasn't sure if I should make her head the same red as her body or if I should keep it white. I might change it next time I draw her.
Kinger's design is definitely my favourite. He's just so silly I love him. Was gonna draw his big blue cloak but I got lazy lol. I'll end up drawing the rest of everyone's outfits next time I draw them. I plan to do a few screen caps of them soon.
I made Ragatha a sheep dog just cus I thought it'd be a cool opportunity to make her hair texture the main feature and I like what I came up with but it probably could be better. I did draw that one at like 4am so it might be a bit messier than usual lol
Anyways lemme know if you like em- I crave validation /j
