“Teeth in the Dark”
Earlier when you and Mr. Gates were having words, you mentioned a letter. What was in it, Billy? Billy! What was in it?
Captain Flint (Toby Stephens) in Black Sails, season 1 episode VI. Another lighting and colour study with ps dry media brushes. The title is a reference to Norman Reedus’ cat “Eye In The Dark” because it is such a cool name and I kept thinking about it quite early on when drawing this... Please, do not repost elsewhere :)
#black sails doodle#not a doodle anymore but I still haven't changed the tag#captain flint#captain grumpy ginger#this was really interesting to draw#idk why but his teeth... I wanted to draw that sinister sneer#to haunt your dreams muahahaha#and the evil moustache#the scary captain they tell stories about#although I can sense a little bit of uncertainty in his stare (because of what Billy might have learned from the letter)#even fear?#originally this had a lot more space around him#in the end I cropped it quite close because it was more menacing that way and it brought out his features more#another square drawing lol#at first I was going to focus more on the teeth and mustache but then I added the white dot in his eye and it stole the focus#and it looked way better#I still kept ''the teeth'' part in the title 'cos I didn't want to borrow the whole name from the cat xD
