Dog-Faced Kobolds

Post by Solomoriah »

Okay guys, draw me some dog-faced kobolds. Not the schnauzer dudes, they've been done. I want to see a variety of different dog types. There are a lot of people who like the new style, but there are a lot who just don't get that they can look a bunch of different ways. So let's show them. I'll be posting them on the Facebook group, on my Twitter feed, etc. so keep that in mind.

I was just playing around with the idea of Doberman but as a warrior kobold instead of pirate.

Here is a very early sketch just to figure out the look.

This sounded fun so I looked up pugs and chihuahuas and started sketching and a couple hours later this came out.

well being 1/2 HD creatures I can see them being enslaved a bit, and when you have slaves it seems to be automatic to make them fight for some reason, so I can SO see KOBOLD ARENA! 2 Kobolds enter, probably none exit!

Tough looking but as Chihuahuas are among the most annoying of dog breeds, and Kobolds are likely to annoy those around them as well, I can see this breed being hunted!

That looks great. As in, I would kill it without hesitation and not want to pet it. 😁

I absolutely love the dog-faced kobolds! These pictures are so good!

However, I'd like to note that we already have cynocephalus-like people in Field Guide 1, caneins (FG1, p. 16). If kobolds can be like any dog breed, how are they distinguished from caneins?

(Although I guess we could retcon it so that caneins are related to kobolds, or maybe even a type of kobolds? Maybe caneins are kobold paladins?

Or maybe caneins know they're totally different from kobolds, but other people confuse them all the time?)
