Starting a new version of this thread from the Outhouse…
I'm a big old kid. Almost anything I like today has a basis in my childhood. One of the things I know I was fascinated about ever since I was a kid was monsters/creatures. I remember when I was a young boy, my grandma reading to me old tales of Japanese folklore. Sure I liked the heroes like Momotaro, but I think I was more interested in the pictures of the oni and tengu and all the stuff that was in the chest in the Urashima Taro story. When I started reading about dinosaurs and creatures of the abyssal plains it made me want to study monster-like creatures even more. I would wait in anticipation for the weekly kaijin to show up on the late afternoon tokusatsu shows to watch Kikaider & Kamen Rider V3 beat them up. And my mind almost exploded in '77 when I saw the Monster Manual and the Star Wars cantina scene in the same year. So I thought I'd start a thread about creatures and monsters; both real and imagined. If any of you like that sort of stuff (I hope there are other folks besides me here) please post. Funny, I love old cheesy monster films and comics (though I really love the designs of the old Marvel monsters more than their stories), dinosaurs, deep sea creatures, weird insects, kaijin and kaiju... but never got into vampires or zombies both currently popular... Well hope some other folks have some they'd like to post about. |

Well, shockingly, I like cute animals...
Yeah, I know.
But I also love those colorful insects and frogs you posted on the Outhouse, and things like whale sharks. Everyone likes dinosaurs IMO, and if you don't like kaiju or other mythological beasties, you've got no soul.

Though it would be impolite to razz him about bronies and such... |

Okay embeds are different here… Thank goodness I never bothered learning how to do embeds there, now I won't have to forget how in order to not learn how to do it here either.
But if it is cute creatures, how about the tasselated wobbegone?

Test. I'm trying to see how to post an image, then maybe video, if I can find the one I want. Eh, didn't work, I'll try again later. ![]() ![]() |

Well, here's Buddy and Sam, my late Cattle Dog brothers, tug of waring. Buddy's the smaller, more active one with the double bandit mask.
