Finally onto character concept! =D

Before we even started this i already knew what type of character i wanted to do, i wanted it to be something I've never designed before, so that threw full human out of the window, it also worked well with the Human-Animal comparison we was recently doing.
What is it i hear you ask? Simple!! A Werewolf  : D

No this does not mean i am a "Team Jacob" fan, i swear those films ruined Werewolves, Vampires were always gay shiny people,..Besides...I'm a fan of "Team Guy Who Nearly Hit Bella With A Van" :D

Right....Back on topic i think...

First thing i did was find out about there posture, what they keep from there wolf counterparts when they become bipedal. Apart from the obvious Fur, Tail, Fangs and Claws, they also keep there strange way of standing, they stand on there tip-toes with the base of the foot off the floor, it may be to make themselves seem bigger or maybe they just cant walk any other way.

Sorry if you cant see it all that well...

Before i dove further into the design, i started with some basic practice of the mass, like i did with the human. This one was more fun though as i was able to draw poses that human just would not do without being diagnosed mentally ill.

From what i could tell, a Werewolf has an extremely large chest mass compared to its waist or head, this may be something they inherited from there wolf side.
When i realized this i started to look at how there skeleton was structured, i did a side on view of the entire skeleton, never got round to doing a front view, i also did a close up comparison of the differences between a Wolf skull and a Human skull.
(From here on the work was done on Photoshop.)

After the Skeleton comes the Muscles, this was surprisingly easy to do, i mostly used human reference but added more wolf like muscle's to where i thought needed, to allow easy movement in either bipedal or quadrupedal stances.

Full Body Muscle Structure!

Third Post! Im doing a 3 for 1 special offer today :)

After the Human Skeleton we started drawing animal ones, but avoiding things like insects and reptiles.
This was to show us how similar the skeletal structure is on most animals and humans :)

To start of this i went straight to my favorite animal ever...
The mighty Wolf :)

Unfortunately i don't believe i did him justice, so i will defiantly be re-visiting this animal in the future, i might go to the zoo n do some quick sketches of them too :)
But the next animal i did drawings of was another Mammal :)

The Saber-Tooth Walrus!! xD
I had alot of fun on this one for sum reason and i feel i did quiet well on it too.

I did a full skeleton for this animal as it looks really interesting to draw, i started with a biped of the major masses, the chest, hip, skull and lines to show where the arms and spine are.

I also did a close up of the Skull, which i have to say im rather proud of :)

Finaly! A Second Post!!! OMG!!

This is a long time after i should have made another post but events in the last few weeks did not allow me the time :(

Well...i wont spam the page with all the ink drawings we did, ill do that at a later date :D
About a week or two ago we started looking at the Human Skeleton, so i did a few close up drawings of some of the join:-

On Left - Hinge Joint, Found in the Elbow and Knee (Technically so is the wrist but its more complicated and i don't want to get into that now.)
On Right - Ball and Socket Joint, Found in the Shoulder and Hip.
Bottom is a close up of the Shoulder Ball and Socket Joint when viewed from behind a person, i also included the Scapula.


After this i did some drawings of a few muscles :-

I did the Front and Back of the arm, in which i identified the Bicep and Tricep,
I also did a close up of the Back muscles and Arm, I was able to identify the:
Trapizius -  Which is located where your shoulder meets your neck.
Deltoid - Located at the top of your arm and around the Ball and Socket Joint in your shoulder.
Tricep - Located on the back of your arm.
Infraspinatus - Located around your armpit, it connects the back and front muscles.


I was also told to do some biped poses, which would help me develop a mental biped so i would be able to see how a body is in any poses without having to search the internet for the exact pose i want. :)
