Werewolf Wednesday Theme: Sleepy Werewolves

Andrew has been too busy to post very much these days, probably because he is a workaholic who needs to be shot with a dart gun before he’ll relax! With both of those points in mind, I thought I would post a new Werewolf Wendesday doodle theme today: Sleepy Werewolves. After all that lurking and chasing and pouncing on victims by moonlight, every werewolf needs a nap!

Draw or DOODLE your own dreaming lycanthrope, then post a link to it in the comments below, and share it on Twitter with the hashtag #WerewolfWednesday. Then go take a nap!

Making your own realistic werewolf fangs at home

Sculptor, mask-maker and general “makin’ cool stuff because I can” guy Evan Campbell has created a fantastic tutorial showing how to make your own totally realistic werewolf fangs with a few commercially available supplies, a little skill and a lot of practice.

Okay, technically the tutorial is titled “Vampire Teeth”, but the word only appears once on the page, and the technique will let you make any kind of chompers you can sculpt. I love DIY stuff, and despite the unfamiliarity of some of the gear (that Articulator looks like something out of a Saw movie), there’s nothing going on here that’s out of reach for anyone with the willingness to spend a few bucks and a lot of hours getting messy. Thanks to Evan for sharing his expertise – between this tutorial and his others on mask-making (part one and two), skin textures and punching hair, you’ve got everything you need to make a killer werewolf mask. Thanks also to Tandye for sending me the link!

See Frankenweenie’s “Night of the Were-Rat” creature feature poster

Two months ago I posted that Tim Burton’s Frankenweenie remake contained what might be described as an “incidental werewolf”. A reader named Lew commented that Burton’s werewolves look like were-rats, and as it turns out, that’s actually what the “werewolf” is: a were-rat! This morning, Bloody Disgusting shared seven new “creature feature” – inspired Frankenweenie posters featuring monstrous pets, and one of them is for a non-existant film I’d probably go see before Frankenweenie: The Night of the Were-Rat.

Werewolf Wednesday Theme: Big & Beastly

Hi everyone! This weeks theme is up so draw whatever comes to mind when you think, Big & Beastly. You know, anything besides the Beast from Beauty and the Beast or Beast from X-Men, the Hulk… okay, okay, let’s stick to werewolves here people. Be creative, share your art in the comments, and as always,  have fun!

edit by Andrew: Tandye will be Livestreaming a werewolf-themed drawing & chat session at her Livestream page today, starting at 2 PM Pacific. Come hang out!

Today’s Great Showdown by Scott C.: “Even a man who is pure in heart…”

As I’ve previously mentioned on Werewolf News, artist Scott C. and his ongoing series of Great Showdowns are the sources of, like, 75% of my Internet-delivered smiles. Today’s Showdown is an “old timey jammer” that perfectly (and literally) illustrates Scott’s knack for capturing epic film confrontations in the most agreeable way possible.

EVERYBODY’S SMILING.

Werewolf Wednesday Theme: Fan Art

What time is it? Werewolf Wednesday doodle time! This week’s theme is Fan Art.

Transport your favorite werewolf character into a different TV show, movie or book and draw the results. For example, put Scott McCall from Teen Wolf into an episode of Mad Men (good idea @DFWendi), or show David Kessler from American Werewolf in London as a character from The Incredibles.

For my entry, I’ve chosen to show Alexis the librarian from Andrew’s Wolf-Girls story as a Whywolf from Adventure Time. Bring back your books on time!

Share your werewolf character fan art in the comments below, and on Twitter with the hashtag #WerewolfWednesday.

Three “Wayne The Werewolf” (+ his family) posters from “Hotel Transylvania”

Steve Buscemi‘s turn as Wayne the Werewolf is pretty much the only reason the animated film Hotel Transylvania is on my radar. The combined presences of Adam Sandler, Kevin James and Andy Samberg on a single project is more than an effete geek like me can stand, but I like the movie’s art direction and character design.

Courtesy of The Hollywood News (and @viergacht, who linked me), here are three posters (one in English, two in Spanish) showing Wayne and the rest of his werewolf family. I love the hat, the expression of perpetual exhaustion, and those kids!

Hotel Transylvania hits theatres September 20.

Werewolf Wednesday theme: Femme Fatale

It’s Werewolf Wednesday again, and that means a new doodle theme! Last week’s theme was cute, so let’s make things a little more “adult” with today’s theme: Femme Fatale. Share your drawings of dangerous werewolf ladies in the comments below, and on Twitter with the hashtag #WerewolfWednesday!

Check out these killer werewolf illustrations from CGHUB Drawing Jam 78

The denizens of CGHUB.com host bi-weekly 2D Drawing Jams in their forum, and the topic for the current jam, number 78, is “The Werewolf”. Guilty confession: when I discovered this, I said “Aw yeah, that’s my jam” out loud. To myself. In an empty room. Anyway. There are two threads for you to peruse: the art jam itself, where CGHUB users post their works in progress, and the poll thread, where artists submit their completed work and registered users can vote for their favourite until just after 5:30 PM, August 12th.



Because I’m not a traffic-stealing, content-poaching jerk, I’m not going to re-host the artwork here, but I will post thumbnails that link to four of my favourite entries. I encourage you to browse the jam and poll threads to see all the entries for yourself – there’s some good stuff in there!
