Me doing one what I usually do--making everything/everyone a canine...or more canine than usual. At least here it's justified since Cladeen's a werewolf.
Don't get me wrong, I like MH and I like the werewolves, but I sometimes wish they were a little more...wolfy, for lack of a better term. They howl and go crazy at the moon, they generally have yellow/bright eyes and they have fangs and ears, but besides that there's nothing that really screams werewolf about them. If it wasn't for a lot of the MH cats being distinguished by smaller/"cuter" ears and cat noses, the 'wolves would probably be mistaken as cat-people.
But, I'm nitpicking and I still like the werewolves, regardless.
Though I'm not in love with this, I'll give it kudos for helping me actually take some time with something this week and helping me ward off an art block that trying to wriggle it's ugly head in my direction.

Knew Clawdeen was such a lackluster design. Glad you made her look more wolfy!

Really nice! I like how you stuck to the reference image in a lot of ways but still gave it your own flare. I do enjoy the more wolfy-version too.

'Sounds like those on that show look are like the Benicio Del Toro wolf man, more human looking than canine.

Yeah, I'm usually not a fan of the more humanoid werewolves--aside from toony weres, I love big, snarly, blood-hungry wolfy beings; I think some of cinema's best werewolves (judging only by appearance) come from Van Helsing & Rise of the Lycans.
