Okay so I brainrotted way too hard over my own version of Blue (Not named Swap there is a reason for that ;3) that his little blurb would quite literally overpower the other two Stars' so he gets his own post!

The blurb (Ramble? Infodump??) under the cut!
════ ⋆★⋆ ════
In Houndverse, multiple versions of the same AU can exist (minus a select few such as Dreamtale, the Doodlesphere, the Anti-void, etc.) and Blue comes from an Underswap copy. Copies are basically the same sense as a creator adding small changes to an already existing AU, and they aren't always stable.
Such was the case with Blue's AU. It corrupted, leaving him to be the only survivor to be rescued by Core and Outer (Outer still has his own AU, but in Houndverse I like to imagine he is one of the AUs that help care for the Omega Timeline)
Before the Stars, he resided in the Omega Timeline. Many others in the timeline came from collapsed or corrupted AUs like he had, so he understood their pain and made it his own personal mission to try and protect their hope.
His strong sense of hope and compassion is actually what led Dream and Ink to Blue, where he later became a pillar of hope for not only the other AUs around him but amongst his own team as well.
════ ⋆★⋆ ════
Can you tell Blue is my favorite AU? He is genuinely one of my favorite Sans AUs like, ever, so of course he is one of the ones I thought the most about.
He has many stars on his design, as I feel like he would show his team and family with pride! He is proud of them and what they are able to achieve together!
He also has a bigger tail like Horror's, but it is much longer. Again, very good for tanking hits when he needs it to! He is definitely the largest of the Stars (big Swap supremacy!!), though not as big as Horror. He is just a bit bigger than a normal Sans.
Blue misses his home, and his family from his original AU, but he never lets their memory die.
Fun Fact also! He isn't the first Swap Sans to have joined the Stars, but that's a fun thing for another time ;3
I was planning to post him when I got a proper design ref out but I drew him in a magma and got way too excited
So here he is!
I do still plan on giving him a proper ref sheet type drawing like I did with the Murdertime Trio so more of his facts will go there but I'll put one here as well:
He has no tail like the other AUs, so he makes his own with his ink! In fact, his body is partly made of ink so he can morph it to be how he wants it (which he chooses to do fun things like have his tail and his feet be paws).
Houndverse is actually also getting a different type of story at least in terms of characters and backstories?? The brainworms got to me dvwhgdvghd
Ink belongs to @/comyet
His design for Houndverse belongs to me!
I adore seeing people incorporate tree themes into their designs for Nightmare and Dream and I too wanted to include it. But my apple twins designs are already set (just need to y'know actually draw them sbhdhdhdj)
Then I had an idea.
What if I incorporate it into their portals?
Nightmare's portals after his corruption just kind of look like gross vines, but if they weren't covered in the goop they would look like twisting branches from an apple tree.
As for Dream's? His portals would be apple blossoms and leaves. Literally if I didn't suck ass at plants I would draw out what I envisioned because it looked so pretty in my mind. Just the swirling of loose apple blossoms and leaves going around you and when it clears you are now in a new place.
So, I found out the other day that my artstyle changed greatly, even though the only thing I changed really was how I draw in-between the eyes, so I'm just going to post my Murdertime Trio designs now rather than wait until I have the next batch done as I will be severely unhappy with it then and I worked way too hard on this drawing to redo it :'3
Without further ado, the boys!

Going forward, I'm going to probably just tag my designs as "Houndverse" (hehe dog brand) even though as it stands it's not too much changing story wise? So any posts featuring my designs will be tagged as #Houndverse just for future convenience to find them as I will probably just go back and forth on these designs and then the normal designs
Close-ups of each design and small ramble about them under the cut
════ ⋆★⋆ ════
Killer:
════ ⋆★⋆ ════
Killer is one to probably choose style over protection, much to Nightmare's annoyance. It's not shown as I couldn't think of all the kinds of pins Killer would wear but Killer has a lot of pins on his jacket. Most of them were taken from different AUs they have visited but he actually custom created a little brand pin for the gang (even if they don't wear theirs on their outfits), the little green moon one!
Story wise and personality wise not much actually changes. If anything he pretty much just acts like CJ Does VA's version of him dvwghdv
His tail is very long, probably a bit longer than most skeleton monsters, and he can use it almost like a whip if he wants to if, for whatever reason, he finds himself without his knife (which could you tell it was Scream inspired? dgvwghdv)
════ ⋆★⋆ ════
Horror:
════ ⋆★⋆ ════
I love Horror so his ramble may be longer than the others oops
I'm a sucker for butcher themes so of course Horror is heavily inspired off of the horror butcher themes. I don't think I nailed the vibes but very Texas Chainsaw Massacre vibes is what I tried to go for? He has very fluffy clothes, mans hates being cold.
I tried making his crack more extreme? I love designs where the crack blends into his eye socket. And of course you know I absolutely had to give him teeth like those.
Horror's tail is more on the stubbier side, but is larger and strong as hell and can tank many hits. Horror in my headcanon uses his weapons/traps much more than his magic, as even though he is in a much better place now foodwise it's still weakened a good bit. He uses it if he absolutely needs to and it's mainly to just teleport away.
In my headcanon of Horrortale, monster's in that AU are actually scaled much different. So while he is huge compared to the rest of the gang, in his own AU he is still considered a normal Sans height. Which makes Sugar an absolutely massive monster and that makes me really happy dhvwghdvw
════ ⋆★⋆ ════
Dust:
════ ⋆★⋆ ════
Dust was probably the one I struggled with the most, mainly because I could not decide on his hood. Whether I wanted it to show his face, only part of his face, or like how I ended up going with and the shadow covering his entire face.
His jacket, unlike the others, is his original jacket from when he used to be a Sans, before he joined the gang. Rather than just get a new one, he just sews patches onto places where it got ripped or torn during battle. The bunny ears weren't his doing however, and he still has no idea who in the gang did it (his bet is on Killer). He chooses to wear what's basically pajamas, as he likes fighting more from a distance with his magic attacks. (I realize now that I didn't add any dust to the jacket? Though for color picking reasons I guess it still works dvghwvdgh)
Dust's tail is probably the absolute shortest, even more so that a piece of it dusted away a while back. It doesn't really help him with his "dust bunny" nickname in all honesty.

Killer belongs to @rahafwabas
Horror belongs to Sour-Apple-Studios
Dust belongs to @ask-dusttale
It's been a bit since I posted as well, life things and all that but I finally have a design I am happy for with my version of Nightmare!
(More info about him under the cut)
Houndverse Nightmare is more lanky and small, but makes his silhouette seem bigger and more imposing with his tentacles. I of course love when people draw Nightmare in these elegant clothes, so he wears suits like this a lot.
The attack on him from his youth left his arm pretty much unusable without help, so the goop on his hand acts like an aid of sorts for him to be able to properly use that hand.
I should make more art of my younger Nightmare design sometime soon if I can get the motivation to
I don't normally? Do warm-ups? So for this I just loosely sketched instead of making sure everything looked absolutely correct? Which ended up being pretty fun!
Day one done! I don't normally try these, so I hope I can at least have motivation for a couple!
Inktober with my own little Ink design because I missed drawing him
He gives me major cuteness aggression
A wip animatic that most likely won't be finished (unless I somehow get the motivation to continue it again) of Passive (Pre Nightmare eating the apple) based on me headcanoning Varian to be my voiceclaim for him!
In my version of the multiverse, Dream and Nightmare were more pre-teens rather than little kids when the apple incident happened
Since Passive probably won't get a full body design I'll put my little drawing I have for him here:
Though in the near future Dream and Nightmare's designs might get updated to make them look a little bit more creature?
This was made in flipaclip to do the timings right but if I went further with it, it most likely would have had the frames redrawn in IBISPaintX
And oh I 1000% want to draw the Tree if I can figure out how to get it right because I imagined it EXACTLY like the pear and apple trees Pear Butter and Bright Mac planted in MLP
Hello! I go by Salty or Canines, and I am a multi-fandom artist that mainly draws my fixations! I do not have a set posting schedule, but my drawings will feature mainly what I am fixated the most!
My current biggest fixation (aka what I will most likely draw and post about the most) is Undertale/UTMV! Though some of my other bigger interests are:
𐂯⋆⋅ Lego Monkie Kid
𐂯⋆⋅ Warrior Cats
𐂯⋆⋅ FNAF
𐂯⋆⋅ My Little Pony
𐂯⋆⋅ Hermitcraft SMP/Life Series
𐂯⋆⋅ Regretevator
(And many, many other smaller ones that would make this list way too long)
I am typically a very anxious person, and my posts may reflect that as I could post many times over a few days or not post at all for a while.
(Plan to make neat masterposts later for my OCs/Houndverse, so if you wish to find Houndverse stuff until then just use the tag please!)
