Labs for cell cultures are safe from the hounds of Tindalos since they don't have corners as a biosecurity measure to make them easy to clean

This looks terrifying to see right before going to bed after turning the lights off.

Perfect 👌

another #monstober piece knocked out of the park.

"hound" prompt. i went with the hound of tindalos, because i realized i'd encountered the concept before i even knew about h.p. lovecraft lol. i played...what...shadow hearts covenant? and one of the dog folk that blanca can talk to is a magic meat thing. man, i need to play some more shadow hearts. been missing it, even more now since the funding and announcement of penny blood. ehyeeee~

anyways, a mishmash between the one in shadow hearts and the main concept of the hound in lovecraft lore. here's hoping i can bang out the rest before the year's done.

LEAKAGE OF ANGLES (not angels)

Not gonna Lie, I Rushed this Drawing. But the URGE to Draw This was INTENSE. I Felt like If I Didn't then I Would Explode.

Horus - Hound (of Tindalos)

The distance between you and the Hound is set. It can never decrease. No matter where you go, the Hound is always 5 spaces away from you.

Another one of this twitter trends I participated in, this time is @gooompy's "Turn a regular pokemon into an Ultra Beast and/or Turn an Ultra Beast into a regular pokemon" and I did both

UB-ANGULAR (Dark/Psychic) The Extradimensional Hound pokemon It is based on the "Hounds of Tindalos", extradimensional creatures from the Lovecraftian mythos that are said to inhabit the "angles" of the universe while us humans inhabit the "curves", and can materialize at any point in time and space to hunt their prey. This pokemon is extremely fast due to its nimble, angular body, and more so thanks to its ability to create rifts in reality to enter in and out of our dimension at will. GUZZLORD (Dark/Dragon) The Gluttonous pokemon This voracious dragon is constantly eating anything that comes into its path, using its jaw-like claws to shred things into more easily digestable pieces. If it finds something that it cannot eat, it will destroy it using its power mace-like tail. Despite its wings looking too small when compared to its massive size, this pokemon can still fly, although very slowly and not for too much time.

Creeptober 24 - Just Around the Corner

The Hounds of Tindalos

[smolmilkling]

I've had it in my head recently that I want to try and make a visual novel so I'm playing around with how I want to draw the hounds of tindalos. Here's a first pass.

Some design notes - If the hounds exist in "angular" time, I like the idea of them being crystalline or inorganic, since flesh is nothing but curves -If crystalline, then they can be translucent, both adding to the otherworldly vibe and making them (literally) harder to perceive. Like Barreleye fish, or well-fed mosquitos -I can probably make them look even weirder

 To finally wrap things up, here is the final Creeptober Artwork. Originally, Slipped through the cracks would have appeared here in the original prompt list. But due to the layout of the prompt list, I accidentally switched the two. But what the heck. After all, 31 artworks are 31 artworks - no matter in which order. So Just behind the Corner is a Hound of Tindalos. These hellhounds have been described to me as dimension-shifting, misshapen, disturbing creatures that always ambush their victims around the next corner. Once again on point for the prompt x3 And so Inktober comes to an end. A little late, but complete. Must do this more often with such themes. Lovecraft's more abstract descriptions in particular give such artistic license with these critters. It was a lot of fun to give each of these creatures their own touch ^^

Big thanks to @creep-tober for the awesome challenge. Really enjoyed this one ^___^

Read the Wikipedia summary of Gideon the Ninth. It actually sounds pretty good, in terms of basic story, premise, and setting. Warmed over 40K, to be sure, but that���s hardly unusual (people more often rip of WHFB, of course—science fantasy is more niche).

But then I get to this:

Muir acknowledges that her writing “includes useless memes and jokes for the reader that nobody in my universe would get.”

Oh that’s why its fans on the hellsite are so obnoxious. From the description of the story itself it was surprising to me that it would appeal to the kind of people its fandom seems to be. But the setting being a bunch of false fronts inhabited by characters who have our expectations not their own, explains everything.
