🦍 #ThrowbackThursday Tip!
One of my favorite tools when working in charcoal is actually my kneaded eraser!
I use it as a drawing tool to pull out light and bring form to life.

I'll show you how I use it while sketching a gorilla. 🖤

I thought I’d share a little piece from the very early days of “Mulan.” This is a charcoal drawing I did of the original main villain, 𝗕𝗮𝗼 𝗚𝘂𝗻𝗴!

What’s that you say? There is no Bao Gung? Well, you’re right. (1/3)
