To quote Roukwolf, who submitted this piece by artist SOLIDASP, this werewolf is “…distinctively feral, but with just enough traces of human. In other words, this werewolf seems to have just the right amount of ‘were.'” I agree with him! SOLIDASP has captured an excellent hybrid of human and wolf here, with a humanoid shape, a feral pose, and just the right balance of human articulation. Check out more of SOLIDASP’s art on FurAffinity or The League Of Evil.

Versipellis Studios
Kalypso sent me a message last week about her web site, Versipellis Studios.
My business name and website is called Versipellis Studios. Versipellis as you probably know, is greek for “turn-skin” or werewolf. I do a lot of werewolf art and it is posted on my website… which is still in the works and will soon have its own domain name.
Kalypso’s art style reminds me a lot of Sam Kieth’s style in The Maxx. Very cool– check it out!

Strangeways: Murder Moon
Summer 2008 is a good time for werewolf comics and graphic novels! The latest one to drop is Strangeways: Murder Moon
It’s 1868, and former army officer Seth Collins seeks to escape the horrors of the Civil War by traveling the frontier. Answering an urgent letter from his estranged sister, Collins finds himself under attack by a strange creature that is neither man nor wolf. When his friend and partner Webster is accused of being the beast, Collins must track down the real threat. But which will kill him first: the Wolf, or the secret that the sheriff of Silver Hand is trying to keep buried?
If you’re interested, you can meet the werewolf and check out the effectively grungy and dark art style in this free PDF preview of chapter one.
Wolves of Odin: Werewolves vs. Vikings!
Werewolves and vikings, together at last! In a move seemingly inspired by a heavy metal song (but actually inspired by a wander through Barnes & Noble), comic illustrator Grant Gould is working on a graphic novella titled Wolves of Odin.
“Evening Mr Werewolf” by Tandemonium
click to enlarge
This werewolf by Tandemonium looks as though we’ve caught him in the middle of stalking someone– perhaps a buxom hiker? His short muzzle and large mane are a nice contrast to the long, lean creatures one usually finds in werewolf art. The great colours and highlights really bring out the fur texture too. Nice work! Look for more awesome werewolf art by Tandemonium in future instalments of Weekly Werewolf Art.

Cover Art for Werewolf Women of the S.S.
Rob Zombie has posted the cover art for the first issue of Werewolf Women of the S.S., the comic based on the Grindhouse trailer I mentioned last week. The artwork is by David Hartman, and while there’s no other details available yet, I’m sure Zombie will keep teasing us with tidbits of info over the coming weeks.
