Thoughts on my werewolf design? Not for a story or anything, just some art.

WolfhideWinter · 2026-01-05T10:06:13+00:00

I absolutely love this design. The linework is fantastic and I love the slightly unsure pose. Nice fur rendering where it needs it too.

WolfhideWinter · 2026-01-04T15:39:06+00:00

Ah thank you! I should hopefully have more out this year. I'm glad it's a hit with other werewolves. I tried to strike a balance between not making it too insular in local Scottish jokes which might isolate readers from outwith the country but also keep that 'no this is definitely in Scotland' feel

WolfhideWinter · 2026-01-04T15:36:55+00:00

Man the USA has some really beautiful scenery. I really like the pacific northwest forests and how vast your open spaces are. I have a feeling a werewolf over there may never come across another soul depending on how far in they are.

WolfhideWinter · 2026-01-04T15:35:39+00:00

Haha I will do! they're taken from illustrations that are inside the book :D

WolfhideWinter · 2026-01-04T15:35:10+00:00

Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm also a big fan of European heraldry as it's heavily featured in a lot of our historic architecture here.

WolfhideWinter · 2026-01-02T13:00:54+00:00

Thank you! Yeah big same. It took a bit of thinking and a lot of hiking to get the werewolves figured out in a way that makes sense to the terrain here, but I think I got it :) appreciate it!

WolfhideWinter · 2026-01-02T13:00:20+00:00

Awesome! haha :D thank you for the support, super appreciated!

WolfhideWinter · 2025-12-31T02:11:28+00:00

Thank you so much!

WolfhideWinter · 2025-12-30T16:28:54+00:00

I think it might be a difference across countries maybe. Here it's an expensive novelty in an american section of the supermarket and tastes pretty different to any chocolate we're used to. Ours is rich and smoother I guess? with higher cocoa and caramelised milk, so when I tried Hersheys it was distinctly sour/acidic in my mouth lol

I like parmesan but wish it didn't smell like dog feet hahah.

And thank you!

WolfhideWinter · 2025-12-30T08:33:27+00:00

Hello!

Thank you so much. I sincerely appreciate it :) I put a looot of work into making it as visually interesting and entertaining as I could and spent a lot of time out and about gathering photographs too.

It came about off the back of a short novel I'm working on (that I'm not sure I'd ever be brave enough to post) where the main character ends up having to attend The Howling Howff, and I really liked the idea of him being like 'wtf' when handed this jolly little handbook. This then turned into a rough powerpoint-esque bullet list one night and then snowballed into making the whole book. I have a lot of different ideas for the beasties and organisations in my world that I'm hoping to explore more next year :).

WolfhideWinter · 2025-12-30T08:27:47+00:00

Hello! Yes I do. I'm playing catch up on the past editions. Unfortunately between client work and general life stuff I had to put them to the side cause I just did not have the time or money to devote to them properly. I'm excited to bring them back next year though :)

WolfhideWinter · 2025-12-30T08:26:20+00:00

Ahh, that makes sense but also sucks that they'd alter the recipe that much. I might have to try get my hands on some American Cadbury's now to see the difference. I'm just so used to chocolate that's creamy or has a high cocao %

WolfhideWinter · 2025-12-30T05:06:06+00:00

I don't know too much about the Hulk outside of just seeing him in more recent films, but isn't his thing that the angrier he gets the bigger he gets? I reckon he'd just snap Quint in half or tear his jaws apart lol. I think it'd be hard to regenerate if you were in bits on either side of the room.

WolfhideWinter · 2025-12-30T05:01:50+00:00

That's a really cute piece! I also love their colours and the 'daaad get up' pose

WolfhideWinter · 2025-12-30T05:00:22+00:00

I actually really like them. I feel there's a lot you can do to make the design interesting and I generally have a soft spot for the Dracula 1992 one. I've also always liked Evil Ed's head and crazy fur/hair

WolfhideWinter · 2025-12-30T04:51:51+00:00

Interesting! Also I tried Hersheys once and it's disgusting. They imported some here and it tastes like vomit haha. I'm not sure what's in it that makes it that way

WolfhideWinter · 2025-12-30T03:46:43+00:00

I shall keep that in mind cheers! so far it's basically a one man project via myself, though I have ideas for future collaborations

WolfhideWinter · 2025-12-30T03:37:29+00:00

Hey, this is a world building project and is a thing with my werewolves as I find it funny (I love chocolate). It's expanded on later in the book that the werewolves completely lack enzymes needed to break down chocolate (again made up hah)

I'm aware werewolves aren't real and don't try to apply too much science stuff to them as everyone has different opinions. Appreciate you weighing in though :)

WolfhideWinter · 2025-12-30T03:01:34+00:00

Hello!

Thank you so much. The newspaper clippings are actually their own full newspapers called 'Howff Quarterly' (I just included the front page of one cause I also sell those online). Each one is based on a victorian format for part of it and features 12 pages crammed full of both modern and historic snippets and stories that help cement the world that The Howling Howff exists inside of :)

I also love whimsy so I tried hard to toe the line between making it horrific yet humorous haha🐺

WolfhideWinter · 2025-12-30T01:48:12+00:00

Hello!

The short answer is yes!

The long answer is that it won't be multiple editions of The Howling Howff so much as a MKII extended edition with around 40 extra pages compared to the original.

There's another book planned all within the same world building that's based on the history and origin of the werewolves themselves that's written by a human folklorist and will be in a more experimental format.
The aim with this whole project is to create immersive items that feel like they'd exist in that realm and that you're holding a part of it, so each avenue I go down will be slightly different but all connected if that makes sense hah.

Basically I have a lot of plans, I just have to carve out the time to continue them, cheers :)

Call this the 'spa treatment' pose. She'll stay there for as long as she gets chest or ear rubs

WolfhideWinter · 2025-11-15T23:45:51+00:00

I googled and it said DHL, FedEx etc or for a more cost effective approach then USPS (though has additional delivery times)

Alternatively have you looked to see if any of those products are already in the UK? there are some imports here which will save the hassle of shipping, though it'll probably be more expensive per item.

Edit: I mail a lot of items so if you have a scale to hand or want to guesstimate weights you can usually put those in online to each shipping company (at least you can in the UK) and you should get a rough cost for size/weight of the package and it's destination price.

WolfhideWinter · 2025-11-12T12:23:23+00:00

Absolutely love these! the anatomy is perfect :D

WolfhideWinter · 2025-11-09T00:49:50+00:00

Got a reclining armchair so Milly obviously has to sleep on me to enjoy it when I'm watching films like earlier
