So when I first was getting into dubstep Tiamat and I had this idea that it would be cool if there were robot dogs that made the noises and music that made up dubstep songs. Kind of like anthro radios, or mixing boards I guess. A few other people made their own units and I think the nickname "Sound Hounds" was adopted for the general idea.
This was my part of the idea and I named her/it Sub Woofer. She made up the vocals and those "bow wow wow" sounding base tones (I don't know much about the technicalities behind dubstep or techno so she's probably not that accurate). Her tail was one of those LED light things that wave back and forth real fast and spell out song titles and track info and junk.
The lights on and in her body react to the music, as well :3

Ah thanks, man... it really helps to hear that these days cuz I feel like I've lost my creative edge. I haven't been as good at character design as I used to be so I just hope people haven't gotten bored with my stuff and left. So like, yeah it really helps to hear someone say something like this. I hope I can get back into the swing of clever designs one day!

I remember these Sound Hounds. This is probably one of the coolest ideas ive seen people latch onto. really.
-
Thanks! I thought it was really fun that some people were inspired enough to make their own elements of the concept :D
-
-
Ohh man the patterning is excellent
-
Thank you! I hope it wasn't too random but I think it came together alright XD

ablblbl I know a certain bird who would love this glowy dubstep bastard hound :D
-
Oh yeah? :E It's a pretty fun concept, I wish I had the motivation to draw more of them, heck even ANIMATE them making the music would be cool to see

I would go ape if I had one of these things irl. Also I love the name "sound hounds" It makes me smile every time I read it
-
That would be so cooool @_@ You could walk down the street and pump music with your dog as you go.

This concept is off the hook. I don't care if that expression is cheezy whatever this is an awesome design!! Not only is it aesthetically pleasing, but the whole play on words with "sub woofer" and the fantastic name "sound hounds" is just too fantastic!!
-
Thank you! :D It was certainly a lot of fun! I wish I had more clever ideas like this XD
-
gah I dunno if I can come up with something as epic as you have, but I'd love to "Sound Hound-ify" my own fursona x3 You've got an awesome concept going here. AND I MEAN C'MON AWESOME TECHNO/SPEAKER/ELECTRIC DOGS HOW PERFECT IS THIS

Derp I gotta revisit my Sound Hound, Synth, one of these days <___>
-
Yours was one of my favorites <3 I was so jazzed that other people made their own units, it was fun to see what elements they would conceptualize
-
-
Still absolutely adore this concept. <3 Some day....some day I shall make some sort of dub-beast. :D

When I had originally found your art back in 2004, I immediately fell in love with your designs. Your technical illustration skill is phenomenal, as well. The mix of your designs and abilities are what keeps me coming back to your stuff time and time again after all these years. THIS IS NO EXCEPTION GEEZ I LOVE THIS
