Would love a future series seeing #CaptainBritain deal with the mythological aspects of Otherworld. Reviving the Celtic Gods who lived there, traveling to Annwn aka the Celtic Underworld, more Braddock family history, and expanding their place in the realm.
It’s #InternationalAnimationDay!
I wanted to share some design work I’ve done for @FlurishingQuirk and @boss_berb over the past year for their short film “The Hounds of Annwn” as part of the Beacons programme funded by @BFINETWORKWales and produced by @piclanimation ✨🏴
#MythologyMonday The Cŵn Annwn are a pack of otherworldy white hounds with red-ears from Welsh myth who can be heard running in the sky. Their growling is loudest when they are at a distance, and grows softer as they draw closer. To hear them is often seen as a death portent.
The Celtic Otherworlds (such as the Welsh Annwn and the Irish Tír na nÓg) are often depicted as places of eternal youth and resplendent beauty, their trees heavy with fruit. Thus, they're sometimes referred to as the "Summerland" or the "Summer Country."

this is like a year old... houndour is ghost/fairy and its unnamed evolution is ghost/ice iirc..? it kind of dies as it evolves... so it becomes cold??? idr exactly... also the cwn annwn of myth are supposed to hunt during the cold months iirc... look up cwn annwn theyre cool
A few years ago I wrote a book and designed images based on an old Welsh and Norse folk tale on Glaisteg and the Banshees called 'Return to Annwn' #fantasy #art #ArtistOnTwitter #Wales 👨🎨🎨
@CronajArt Aha. I got some bois.Hadrian and Kiro they're brothers. Kiro is a red-eyed Gwyllgi. Hadrian is a Cŵn Annwn.
Tolkien's “bright colour" comment may be literal: in “English and Welsh” he quotes from the 1st Branch of the Mabinogi in which the otherworld dogs of Arawn King of Annwn are shining white with brilliant red ears (Art by Roger Garland) @FairyTale_Tues #FairyTaleTuesday

Meet Max Miller. Back in Ohio nobody really liked him, but Annwn was a fresh start—a chance to become something more than just a high school bully. He was even an Azure Knight, a selfless defender...for a while. Then that fell apart too. And now? Well, he's still figuring it out. https://t.co/ndP8pufWrQ
Annwn Temple: An abstractive graphic design pop art inspired portrayal of the sacred temple of Annwn.#hicetnunc #hicetnunc2000 #CleanNFT #NFTCommunity #tezos #tezosart #objkt #tezosNFT #tezoscommunity #abstract #abstractart
The Vale of Wales, Chapter 12, Page 16; Every now and then, I like to add Chapter 1's characters, like Cari and Gwen here, to scenes in later chapters; just a couple little reminders of who Amanda was and might still be if she hadn't answered the call to Annwn in the first place.
@GoshGollyWow Just realized that even though Nightcrawler and Meggan evoke fairy elements, technically Brian is the fairy in "Excalibur." The Welsh/Brythonic term for Fairyland is Annwn, "The Otherworld." Brian's father is from Otherworld, so Brian is half-fairy.
#HappyHalloween2021; Considering that Annwn's a Celtic region, naturally it has its Samhain traditions. But once upon an All Hallow's Eve, Amanda convinced Lili, to take a disguise & enjoy a modern Halloween w/ her. Hopefully, w/ Lili around, Spooks are less likely to mess w/ her
The colours of the Welsh fairyland, Annwn, are white and gold. As a result, fairies generally have pale skin, blond hair, and pale yellow eyes. Someone born in Wales with such features was often mistrusted, suspected of being secretly a fairy changeling #SuperstitionSat
Made a minor lore change and now Miss Cú Annwn is the most powerful character in my universe, dethroning Willow lol. Also a character inspo for your viewing
