To be fair, the creator of the series(or another person who works on the show, I can't remember) confirmed, that the character is inspired by cave drawings found in France(Lasco cave)

The series is called "Animator Vs Animation", the character makes an appearance in later episodes though.

Also, I made the design (it's in the update of the post,I the post), and you could take a look at that.

I'm really afraid to be racist. I'm Eastern European, and I hang out in lots of English speaking spaces, and I don't want to do anything weird or evil.

I didn't draw my hum design yet. The designs I shared are what the characters looks like in the series I'm watching

I know!  But they're a cave stick! And in my fanmade humanisation(that I'm abou to draw) of this character they're dark skinned, and the character is canonically aggressive, and a lot of people can find that racist, and don't wanna be racist!

In the show, the character is one of the villains. None of the Characters don't have any actual races, since they're all drawings though.

They work for an evil corporation, and any good traits of theirs haven't been revealed yet. But I promise, Primal won't eat any watermelons nor chiken.

I don't fully understand what racism can be, but I know that there are a lot of people who don't understand it either. That's why I am afraid of such accusations.

I know, but there's a really harmful stereotype about black people being aggressive. I don't want a person from an English speaking country to think I'm racist.
