Basically, this is for the creepypasta-writing folks amongst us to use to post a bibliography of their stuff, along with whatever notable OCs/locations/monsters therein they kinda hope get popular along the lines of Slender Man or RED.
made a buncha monster characters from @bogleech‘s Halloween Bestiary!
Harlequin is a rare calico Caterwaul, she’s a more benevolent sort of trickster that enjoys pulling pranks but is also very motherly towards humans in the same way that most cats believe that people are big dumb kittens that need help finding food and being protected. she tends to shapeshift in a very fluid, rubbery way like an old rubber-hose cartoon
The Hocus is a top-hat variant named Wanda who used to be a stage magician who dabbled a bit too far into actual magic. Her Pocus friend’s name is Trubblegum, and she has some reservations about just gobbling up innocent victims. Instead, she disguises herself as a community candy-bowl with a “take one, please” sign and devours the dicks who steal extra treats.
Next is Daedalus, a young Strixoid who helps students with their homework in exchange for his nightly feeding. he is most definitely a normal magical owl and not something failing spectacularly at pretending to be one. he’s known to hang out with boozy college students to get a taste of that alcohol-spiked blood, but he also protects younger, nerdier kids from bullies with the usual supernatural shenanigans
The black Caterwaul is a more feral specimen that goes by the name Black Tom. He’s both a lot more aggressive and skittish than Harlequin, and the two often end up at odds when they cross paths. his shapeshifting is a lot more jagged and high-strung than hers, and he tends to choose more animalistic forms as well.
A funny thing about introducing a new queen into a hive that has lost its queen (or one that you’ve killed because her brood was too fighty).
You have to introduce the new queen into the hive with these special queen cages that are stopped up with candy, and are open enough to let the hive smell the new queen, but not open enough that they can get in there and kill her.
Because they will kill her.
When you first put the new queen in she smells like an intruder, but by the time it takes the bees to eat through the candy and free the queen, the queen’s pheromones will have had time to work and the hive will have gotten used to her.
From the outside this kinda seems like:
“Yeh, we were all going to murder you to death before, but we’re full of candy now, so we’re cool. Oh yeh, and how about you be the new queen and stuff. Yeh, that’s cool too.”
beekeeping is really weird
Listen, strange bee queens lyin’ in cages distributin’ candy is no basis for a system of government.
Nobody is as excited for this fall/halloween aesthetic as I am! Be sure to follow me @sixpenceee or my other blog @sixpenceeeblogfor the upcoming months for special halloween events and posts!
I just signed up for the newsletter so I know when it goes on sale.
From their facebook
“Did you know that The Vamp Stamp was created by the cofounder of beautyblender? It was also created out of a special need: our celebrity Makeup Artist founder, Veronica, lost the use of her hands due to a benign cervical spinal cord tumor and could no longer do makeup in the traditional way. This solution is made with love and strength for anyone who needs a little extra support accomplishing complicated makeup looks, for ANY reason. Don’t let anyone - or anything - take your Vamp away.”
So it was created as a kind of accessibility device. I am so happy.
my colors on @esabelleryngin ‘s beautiful lineart & character designs for a bug dating game we’re working on (in early development!) called bugs and kisses!
left to right we have: hazel, lilly, linden, rosalie, junie blue, bo (up) and cigalia (down)!
hey man i haven’t been posting much art on tumblr lately, usually just my twitter. Aliza and I are doing Bugs & Kisses together and here are the dateable characters. Theyre all good and we’re excited to bring them to you.
It’s always weird to see like kid stuff or m&m’s promotions or whatever tying into “election season” like its just a fun thing us grownups do and not a living nightmare that decides the fate of the innocent
What public office is Count Chocula running for, and frankly, isn’t he disqualified for such by the US Constitution, given his title of nobility from some foreign land? (Although Boo Berry and Franken Berry are running awful campaigns; their entire platforms are just “the other candidates suck” like they don’t all have equally spooky marshmallows)
yeah what
How am I supposd to vote before even knowing where boo berry stands on reproductive rights or what frank is going to do about climate change? This ain’t a JOKE, general mills, and what if I want to write in Yummy Mummy??
Oh I didn’t even notice the eggs back there but if those are indeed lumpsucker eggs this would actually be a male, just like many fish the female leaves it all up to him
BUT IF YOU HAVEN’T WATCHED THIS VIDEO PLEASE AT LEAST SKIP TO THE 23 SECOND MARK
inktober day15: single young mother travels to far off lands, defends family from unscrupulous adventurers.
inspired by a cute wolf spider mom i rescued from my parent’s bathroom a few weeks ago. her babies weren’t as blob as these are but i got very tired in the home stretch of sketching this.
also i think i’m actually getting better with inks which is neato.
