June - Noob - MarkeMark

Hi all,

My first idea was to have a woman parking a car successfully but thought it might be a bit too unbelievable (sorry to any ladies, just a joke!).

Seriously though, my creature is going to be a Werewolf.

I will be taking ‘An American Werewolf in London’ (my favorite film of all time) as inspiration and as a starting point.
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082010/photogallery

If I find the time then I'm going to try and morph the creature using blend shapes (which I have never used before). Maybe even an animation? Who knows?

Good luck all!

The Maya monster is GREAT. Sometimes we spend to much time with the beast. Do your thing & consider approaching your morph in after effects PB. You can find a morph plug in for it.

Just a comment about your sketch: the canines shouldnt point forward.

And good luck, this is going to be a nice model!
