DESIGN A SNUGHOUL!! Rules and how to enter! 🏆✨
5 months ago – Tue, Oct 07, 2025 at 05:21:24 PM

IT IS TIME!! I'm so very excited to share the contest for this campaign because it's highkey the best one yet-- a DESIGN A GHOUL challenge!!

The premise is simple: pick one of several snughoul bases and create your dream snughoul! Charmsey and I will then choose our 5 favorites to be voted on by the community, and the winner will become an OFFICIAL S3 snughoul 🎉

Prize: ONE winner will receive a free, plush version of their design and a $500 credit to spend in the Tiny Teeth store and/or apply to their backerkit pledge.

The FOUR runner-ups who did not win the poll will receive a $65 credit to spend in the Tiny Teeth store and/or apply to their backerkit pledge.

Rules:

‼️PLEASE READ THESE THOROUGHLY‼️
If your question is not answered here, then feel free to ask it in the comments.

  • ONE submission per person.
  • ONLY species with bases provided will be accepted.
  • You MUST use the provided template, but you can make changes to the line art and include additional notes as long as the base body shape stays the same.
  • For example: adding or changing the shape of existing horns, adding wings, adding extra limbs, changing the expression, adding flowers, scars, and so on is all perfectly fine.
  • You CAN change the species of a base snughoul, as long as the new species is adjacent to the original (like changing the unicorn to a pegasus).
  • Consider the limitations of the materials. Simple designs with fewer colors/markings/etc are more likely to be chosen due to them being easier to replicate.
  • Both digital and traditional submissions are accepted. If a traditional submission is chosen to be part of the final vote, it will be converted to a digital design for the sake of consistency and fairness. 
  • I reserve the right to make changes to the winning design to make it easier to replicate or to better fit in the the S3 collection.
  • Please submit a name suggestion with your final design!  

‼️Additional design tips!‼️

  • Please take into account that embroidery makes things stiffer, so I suggest using it somewhat sparingly or getting creative about its application. 

  • Printed patterns are also an option, but in general should also be used sparingly (for example: Gutsy Were's belly badge)

  • Longer furs CAN be printed on if the printed color is darker than the base material (the arm stripes on the baku, for example). This may be a better alternative to embroidery in some cases due to its softness.

  • Exact color matches are a challenge, so flexibility in your design is a must.

  • If your design doesn't meet the submission requirements, I will provide feedback so you have an opportunity to make adjustments. You won't be disqualified unexpectedly! 

You made it this far, hooray! Below you can browse the various templates and download the PSD for digital editing, or PNG to print and color traditionally.

UNLOCKED!!! 🎉✨ All unlocked snughouls so far and more goals!

Today's update is a BIGGUN critters, so make sure to scroll to the very end!!!

First, with the unlock of the infernal seraphim and guardian lion, I thought it would be handy to share a chart of all the snughouls we've unlocked so far! WHAT A CROWD!! (hopefully I didn't forget anybody lol)

Our supplier comes back from their holiday in the next couple days, which means we'll be full steam ahead on prototyping again! Nessie and the hungry notdeer are nearly finished, and the gryphon and guardian lion should be hot on their heels, so I hope to have more sample pictures to share very soon 💖
 




Now that we've demolished our last stretch goal, it's also time to add a few more 🎉 These were decided with the help of our most recent poll, so thank you for your feedback and I hope everyone enjoys the new goodies!










That's all for now, but tomorrow I have some guest art to share, and hope to announce the details of the design-a-ghoul contest (time permitting 😅 but it will happen this week for sure). See you there, critters!!!

Wristies added! New seraphim and guardian lion (almooost) unlocked!!

Only a few hundred dollars away from 225k and our next unlock! Who's gonna be the generous backer who tips us over the goal? 🤭

To sweeten the pot, the discord and I have been brainstorming some wristie ideas and here are the first two to join the S3 lineup! These 5" plush snack packs will feature an elastic band on the back so your snughoul can enjoy a sweet treat too this Halloween 🎃🍬

You'll find these in the add-on section now, with more to come over the next couple weeks so keep an eye out!



I keep forgetting to share a link to the Snughoul discord too, but not today! Come join the Cryptid Cuddle Club discord and share your thoughts, or just lurk if that's more your speed. I share sketches and other development noodling almost every day so there's lots to see and do 💖

What kind of wristies would you like to see next? Let me know in the comments!

6k until next unlock! More merch, more 'ghouls!!! 🎉 (POLL INSIDE)
6 months ago – Sat, Oct 04, 2025 at 05:48:19 PM

Got a new design reveal for you today, critters! This lovely, smiling seraphim is joining the lineup and will be an option on the survey if you selected a standard keychain/sticker/enamel pin add-on 😇



We're also only 6k away from unlocking the infernal seraphim and guardian lion snughouls!! I'm so thrilled I'd like to share a little sneak peak of what could be next if our funding continues to climb 💖



Which one are you most excited for? Let me know in the poll below, or in the comments!

17k until next unlock!! New accessories available now! 🎉🎉🎉

Only 17k until the infernal seraphim and guardian lion are unlocked, critters!!! We got this in the bag!

To celebrate I have some new add-ons for you. First up is the My Cryptid Romance CD keychain! Here is the concept art, featuring the front, back, and inner album artwork along with the CD. I'm strangely proud of this one and hope you guys enjoy it too 💖



And then we have this gem to celebrate the infernal seraphim specifically-- a handsome, deluxe keychain with dangly gems and a linked sword charm to remind your enemies you WILL smite them into oblivion if the mood strikes ✨



And now for a closer look at our incredible collab rewards! Jekkyfarms created the most amazing Snughoul sticker sheet featuring the S3 mascots, and the crossover episode we didn't know we needed-- Fern the chuuloo and the snughoul notdeer!



I couldn't resist drawing Bubbles, Puddles, and Zoobie because look at them. They're perfection. Frootie and Dreamsicle Unicorn would also undoubtedly be the best of pals, and by backing both of us you'll have the keychain to prove it!
