Artist's Comments

I couldn't think of a good backy so it hasn't got one. Pretty cute, neh? 'tis a yeth hound. No one draws yeth hounds o.o so I just sort of made it up. They're supposed to look like a cross between a lynx and a dog, can you tell? They're also long and skinny. I really like how it turned out in general, even though I can't draw 3/4 view dog faces, or it would have looked more houndish.

"In the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game, the yeth hound is an outsider from evil aligned planes. It resembles a dog crossed with a lynx. It is long and skinny. It is deep black in color with yellow eyes.

The yeth hound hates light, especially sunlight, and never ventures out at day, even if its life depends on it. At night, it hunts by unleashing a mind-affecting howl, and then moving in to bite. The yeth hound is also mentioned as being able to fly, the means used are not mentioned. Due to limited information, there is little else known about the creature.

Yeth hounds cannot speak, but understand Infernal.

They are neutral evil in alignment." -- from Wikipedia (about the D&D version of yeth hounds, not the original version)

oh, sweet o.o I've never heard of a yeth hound before, but it looks awesome.

let's see... an advanced critique? okay... well, the only potential problem I see is the legs- they're too too skinny. you could put *some* meat on them, or instead to keep the skinny look, you could look at a dog's skeleton of its forelegs (humurous, or whatever it's called), and just draw the skin clinging tightly to the bone. that'd look cool. I hope my critique helps!!

aside from that, it turned out awesomely creepy :D the paws and eye color, especially, look creepy!

Which is worse: ignorance or apathy? Who knows? Who cares?
