I'll play with his expression, definitely. Thanks!

I'm no expert at this, but it looks like the head is too far to the left and maybe a tad low. 
Quick edit:


Looks great though.
Thank you for the edit! I will definitely fix that.

I don't think he wants to draw a wolf penis. Keep the pants. Werewolves aren't just wolves, they are humans who have transformed into a wolf. Realistically there still would be clothes on him. As far as the update, it's better, but you can go even darker on the pants.
Yeah, because my dog loves wearing pants. =P
I think realistically, a werewolf would take his pants off. (lol at "realistic" werewolves.)

Besides, he doesn't need to draw wolf penis. He could just make it fluffy and/or dark down there. Most people wouldn't mind not seeing his modesty waggling around, even without the pants on.
I just think tight short shorts ruin the image of a deadly, crazed beast. And taking the shorts off would solve the problem of them not contrasting enough with the rest of him, too.

But of course, that's just my advice. It's Delicious' drawing, so he's obviously free to do whatever he feels is best! =)
This werewolf shall keep his pants on, atleast until I give up on them. However, right now, I quite like the pants. :P
Thanks for the suggestion! I appreciate it.

The wolf's head leading to the finger pointing outwards kinda leads your eye out of the image, this version was better. When making a pose, think about the flow of the limbs (example). Also I have to agree with the pants color comments.

Here's an edit:



Also tried out some fur texture on the arm like Facet suggested (version w/o shoulder fur here), didn't take that long and it could be applied to other parts of the sprite.

Keep up the good work!
Thank you for a lovely edit! Makes tons of sense. I will render the fur some more once I'm comfortable with the pose and form. Thanks again!



If these pants are still barely readable to some, then I will change them to a brown-ish color. Agree?

I'm not sure if some of you understand, but I'm trying to make it so that the blood contrasts completely in the image. If I were to "just add a different color for his pants", it completely ruins what I'm trying to accomplish. I am sticking to monochromatic and just 12 colors, unless I consider adding a background. I appreciate the suggestions, and will continue making the the werewolf's fur stand apart from his pants. It should come together in the rendering stage especially.

Thanks!

True. I was just preserving colors and making it some-what monochromatic and it'll keep the red as contrasting compared to a very blue-hued palette. I'll try and see about brown for the pants.

Most werewolf references? :P Possibly my issues are those of conception; if you intended him as a more battletoadsy vision, he looks pretty bad-ass. The muscle definition especially on the arm is still a bit much for me though and a broader palette could do a lot of good; particularly for differentiating the hulk-shorts.

Due process is something I find hard too, but it makes makes the biggest difference in productivity and quality.

Where that tail at?      
Hah. Yea, I guess that bit sounded kinda stupid. What I meant to say is that pictures depicting werewolf's commonly have larger arms and hands - Makes them look a bit more threatening and I personally prefer it. :P

Yes, indeed. Getting that ability is most important if you're wanting accuracy with your work. Definitely something everybody would need to work on. I'll keep that in mind, thanks!

Tail is coming soon to a theater near you.   ;)

Edit: Also, what do you mean a "broader palette"? Not monochromatic? Thanks!

Thanks Facet for the criticism. However, I'd like to stress that I'd prefer if the arms are a bit longer than that of a human. Most references suggest that the arms are longer and the paws larger. I will make the paws slightly smaller, but I'm pretty satisfied with the length of the arms. How would you suggest I do the torso? Considering a werewolf is a human, I'm not too worried about it appearing to be so.

I found this on google which illustrates my point:

I also understand what you mean about avoiding the rendering stage until everything seems to be in place, but it's an urge I must overcome to just dabble a bit into the rendering. :P

Woah, so many obvious mistakes that I made and didn't realize. Thanks Cure! I should study dynamic poses and put more into my work, but for this I'm not really looking for one. It's just suppose to be a wolf staring off after he just finished his meal. I'll definitely make a more exciting piece after this.



Also, Corinthian Baby, I just prefer him wearing shorts now. I tried a couple lower torso drawings of him and I was proud of neither.

Update. Legs need some fixing though, seem quite odd at the moment. Also, moved the blood outta the way to see his face a bit better - Any better? I also need to find a better place for the tail then, cause I don't want it to look like it's going through his tail - It's really behind his leg like Jeremy mentioned.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Definitely will show you an update by tomorrow. Just got barely any time due to lame work. :(
