did anyone ever read The Fox Busters by King-Smith? kind of his farmyard spoof on The Dam Busters. I always remember the bit where the eeeevil foxes ambush the chickens in a strawberry patch and it described how 'it was hard to tell what was strawberry mush or not' (ie all the blood!)

I'd be lying if reading White Fang and Call of the Wild when very young (oh, when I was 9 or 10?) made me into what I am now. 'Oh yes cos its about wolves haha' yeah, but the stark brutality, almost existential view of the wilderness, that really informed a lot of my tastes in fiction growing up.

Everybody wants to look like Matthew Lesko, but no one wants to put in the work to *be* Matthew Lesko.

Say what you want about the furry community but it is a little affirming *and* depressing that its the only space Ive seem trying to take a stand against the blight of gravy seals Meanwhile all other nerd cosplay spaces Ive seen either tolerate or adore that crap

Have another Cornelis Saftleven painting for today. "Satire on Litigious Farmers", or "Who sues for a cow." 1629 Currently on the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam.

Another X-Files makeup effects article done! This time for season 8, on which both John Vulich and Matthew Mungle contributed. Warning for gruesome makeup effects in the article as usual for a XF post. #XFiles #TheXFiles #MatthewMungle #JohnVulich makeupeffectsarchive.blogspot.com/2025/11/the-...

So apparently the werewolf itself was designed by (next time, remind me to check the front credits as well as the end credits!) Mark Crowe According to IMDB, this is the same Mark Crowe who co-created Sierra's Space Quest game series. I may have to dig into this to find out but huh!

Ghoul sketches from a couple years ago, I really need to do a proper project with them soon #horrorart #gentlemonsterart #ghoulcore #throneofbones

You know what? Fake brain props are pretty fun.

Alrighty guys I am open! Just hit me up and we’ll talk! I will also take smaller comms in my toony style if desired at about mm $70, you can find examples in my media and I will repost some pursuant to this Love you all, friends

how it feels running into a brick wall when it comes to BTS material of certain 90s werewolf movies

Did you know that one of the first movies Aardman Animations tried to make was an adaptation of the "Tortoise and the Hare" fable? It was eventually shelved, but they made concept art and figurines for it.

A bad post I must get out my system; smooth collies are rizzed up greyhounds

'Tenderqueer' imo still has value as a term even if its a major snarl world. Its pretty accurate to describing a type of personality that infests queer spaces, the queer version of a softboy

Been busy trying to get stuff moved this week (sigh) so not much drawing to show. Here's a sketchy werewolf who's just too damn tired to go out even though it's a full moon, they're sitting home and watching the great british bake off.

can this happen to a normal woman?

Wesley Wofford has been sending me more behind the scenes materials of his work on Project Metalbeast, especially of the grey werewolf seen at the start of the film! Again I have to thank Wofford for being so kind! #ProjectMetalbeast

Various sculpts of the 'half formed' prosthetic, the Metalbeast suit and the grey wolf suit... #ProjectMetalbeast

The caption also perfectly describes this Tom Ellard / Skinny Puppy picture (Tom Ellard helped Skinny Puppy out with their Assimilate album)

Apparently these are owned by a fan and I am honestly so disappointed that whoever owns these has never scanned them publicly yet

So besides the good political news, I also had a job interview earlier today and I got more exclusive BTS pics from an obscure werewolf movie, so today's been a good day

When you're being mean to me this is who you're being mean to

If you like the film Xtro - and I believe it has garnered quite a bigger reputation over the years - then please remember that it was thanks to Francis Coates that it had such gnarly monsters! He does have an Instagram as well: www.instagram.com/coates.franc... bsky.app/profile/late...

Gonna update my blog's article on Xtro in a sec, but look at what these behind-the-scenes images (that I'm sure that have never been seen before!) Francis Coates sent to me by email! Three of them are of the 'skeletal' monster seen at the film's end, 1 is of the first monster. #Xtro #FrancisCoates

looking at this the next day outside of my dark living room and it may have been a little too dark, so here's a slightly lightened version

It would be a fun excuse to look into how werewolves were depicted in illustratios before cinema or comics were mainstream either. I would also write one on the evolution of the Grey, how it evolved from earlier SF aliens to the iconic X Files type designs that are just a bit of a joke now

It's still on the backburner but I frankly want to write an article about the evolution of werewolf designs partly to notice how films/comics influenced each other, partly to put that 'wheres the tail' bs to rest

Rick Baker watch out...my Steven Universe Eldritch AU Roleplay Server has a lot to teach you about monster design...
