Too often, werewolf crisis centers focus on the perpetrators, even when severing their bloodline might help the victims of their carnivorous lunar activities. - This art is by @thedylanroca.bsky.social! - #WerewolfWednesday #werewolf #werewolfwoman #werewolfwomen #transformation #transfur

A faux vintage pulp horror style comic book cover for “May’s Awakening,” featuring the four‑stage transformation of a young woman into a towering werewolf. Starting as a fully human young woman with long dark hair wearing a gray sweater and a pink skirt with leggings and sandals, she looks at her changing hand saying “W‑what? Things are getting hairy!”. In the next stage, in the middle left, she looks pained, gritting her teeth as the transformation begins, with patches of fur spread across her limbs, her ears sharpening, and her clothes tearing. In the middle right, she has become muscular, hunched, with elongated limbs, a muzzle forming, and a pained grimace as she instinctiely tears away her clothes. In the final stage in the upper center, she is a full werewolf: tall, broad‑shouldered, heavily muscled, covered in dark fur, clutching the torn remains of her top and standing in a dramatic pose against a backdrop of a large stylized moon and jagged mountain silhouettes while shouting “I will sever the bloodline of whoever did this to me!” At the bottom right corner, a tagline in a boxed caption reads: “They made her a monster. She’ll make them regret it.”

Here are the process pictures for this one. I wanted to draw the characters on model for this rather than tracing the original panel, mainly because I liked the challenge. To account for this, I tried to make the rendering as close as I could to the comic.

Do not mess with 100 Acre Woodites. They do NOT know how to read, and are particularly vengeful

If I'm not mistaken, it seems we get a look at some of your design work in this video youtu.be/VPR5y0SgmkM?.... I would be fascinated to hear more about your experience working on the production (and maybe get a closer look at these pieces).

1 year ago, Dog of the Samurai graced (small) screens around the world, and audiences were introduced to the tragic tale of a dog who, in an effort to avenge a man, became a monster. If you haven’t seen it yet, go check it out!

This design was fun to tackle, and credit where it’s due, Alien Evolution’s preliminary drawing was a great basis to start from.

I was originally going to use my own caricatures of my friends, but elected to treat this as more of a study of @sethkearsley.bsky.social’s original piece, also done on paper (no tracing here btw). I of course had to make myself Whitey.

I actually started this one on paper first, but I edited the pose on Clip Studio Paint to make the silhouette clearer and more dynamic. I think I should start playing with forced perspective more, I think it would push my art to a whole new level.

A clean version of this #TFTuesday #transformation design featuring art from Birdcomixstudios!

The image depicts a faux vintage comic book cover titled "Ankyla: The Oblivious Were-Ankylosaurus". The cover features a slim blond woman transforming into a large, muscular, anthropomorphic female Ankylosaurus as she lifts, and eventually breaks, barbell over her head. She says "Okay, Susana, you can do this" before she transforms, and "Aw yeah, a new record" afterwards. Text at the bottom reads "Susana Kurylo is trying bodybuilding, but what kind of body is she building with...The Paleo Workout!"

An illustration showing a young woman with long hair wearing a loose sweater and a pink skirt transforming into a werewolf in four stages. She sprouts claws, tears her clothes, grows fur, and swells in size, finishing aso a muscular, anthropomorphic werewolf woman, snarling with sharp fangs, a wolf-like head with pointed ears, and tattered remnants of her human clothing.
