ranking lego werewolves

The Werewolf, Monster Fighters

A very solid start; An actual wolf head with a custom mold to represent fur going down his back and extending to the body piece. Unlike minifigs, this one's clearly going for scary rather than funny, and i'm a big fan of the ripped sleeves reflected by brown fur colored arms. I do wish he had a tail piece, but so it goes. Strangely the only one with wolverine claws. 7/10 also had a great level in the MF flash videogame

Werewolf Drummer, Vidiyo

The reason I had to bump the last one down a peg. So much character! The battlejacket, the pins, the barely-there shirt, the bone decorations all over- this is a man who is fucking living it up being a werewolf. The glowing yellow eyes are also a nice touch, and we finally have a tail! fanflippintastic. 10/10

Werewolf, Minifigures (2011)

Clearly going for a Larry Talbot wolf man over the others, which is certainly an admirable aesthetic, just... not a personal favorite of mine. For the time, it's decent, but really just represents a jumping off point every successive one has improved on. Nice muscles though, and i like how only one sleeve is torn this time. 5/10

Wolf Guy, Minifigures (2015)

Already gets extra points for being the were'd version of a previous minifigure, the Lumberjack- even has the same nametag, Kel, which is kind of unintentionally funny to me. Early minifigures lines did a lot of subtle cross references like this that gave them so much character, I love it. I wouldn't say it's an improvement over Vidiyo, but it certainly is a better werewolf minifigure after four years of rethinking the old one. Also, apparently newer minifigs dont include character descriptions like the old ones, which is a damn shame; i love reading them. Bigger bone implies bigger cock. 8/10

Remus Lupin, Harry Potter

Ugh. Whatever. It's a fine headpiece, but it gets used better on the next guy. Fucking hands don't even match. Whatever. Not even gonna bother with Fenrir Greyback. 2/10

Werewolf, Studios

Told you. This one's meant to be an actor in a costume, going with the Studios theme, so I kinda dig the pooky looking wolf head, as well as the fact that there's some rando under it. Plus, that comic. Good for her. 6/10

Werewolf, Heroica

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH 13/10

Werewolf By Night, Marvel Super Heroes

come on man. -2/109

Philostratus' Heroicus has some gems in it, but I would like to bring attention to this particular passage:

He says that even the Mysian women fought from horses alongside the men, just as the Amazons do, and the leader of the cavalry was Hiera, wife of Telephos.

Nireus is said to have killed her (for the young men of the army, who had not yet won honor, drew up for battle against the women). When she fell, the Mysian women cried out, scaring their horses, and were driven into the marshes of the Kaikos. This Hiera, Protesilaos says, was the tallest woman he had ever seen and the most beautiful. He does not claim that he saw Menelaos's wife Helen in Troy, but that he now sees Helen herself and does not blame her for his death. When he considers Hiera, however, he says that she surpasses Helen as much as Helen surpasses the Trojan women. Not even Hiera, my guest, won the praise of Homer, who did not introduce this divine woman into his own works because he favored Helen. Even the Achaeans are said to have been afflicted with passion for Hiera when she fell in battle, and the elders commanded the young soldiers neither to despoil Hiera nor to touch her as she lay dead. 

It’s already a travesty that we don’t talk about the raid on Mysia enough, but WHERE are my Hiera stans???

Protesilaos also remembers how great the deeds of Palamedes were when he, Diomedes, and Sthenelos killed Haimos and his companions. Palamedes did not consider himself worthy of any rewards of valor; rather he yielded them to Diomedes, since he recognized that Diomedes had done everything for the honor and glory of battle. If the Hellenes, however, had proposed a crown for intellectual skill, Palamedes would not have lost it to any other man, since from the beginning he desired wisdom and trained himself in it. — Heroica, 690

ok so listen. heroica's version of palamedes death only includes odysseus and nobody else. but think of how fascinating it'd be if we patched this info together with diomedes being his murderer as well??? like. palamedes and diomedes were companions, the euboean admiring the argive so much as to give him all of his war spoils?? and yet. diomedes conspired to kill him too, because odysseus mattered more – because he was the closer companion. it's about the layers of betrayal, people!!

I never shared this one as it was actually a prototype layout for Garda World, and I'd moved away from certain elements for the Homunculus huntress Aznab.

Here she is before she had a face about to cut down a creature.

Wow, the first art I did in 2023 was a redraw of an older fanfic cover.

I commissioned artist aquabluu for the cover back in 2018, and with permission, challenged myself to redraw it in the style I always imagined the fanfic would have, something more akin to retro game/anime art. I don't think I hit it that well now that I'm looking back, but I'm still very happy with the outcome.

read BratPack again and. Do u think Cody was disgusted by Karlo's drug and alcohol problem like he was with his parents. Do you think he thought Karlo was weak or pathetic for it. Or do u think that, after everything they lived through, Cody wished he didn't have the morals to stay sober. Do u think he wishes he could be an addict without letting go of everything he is just so he could get through his life as Chippy
