Sketchbook: Model Sheet - Cheshire's Wolf Forms

Pencil, Sketch N' Wash, & non-photo blue pencil on Bristol board

Most of the werewolves in the Castle Whatsitsname world have three forms: human, wolf, and a hybrid of the two. They come into the world like ordinary humans, and Change when they hit puberty. Cheshire is a bit different. She was one of seven pups born to the Undertaker's champion Siberian husky and her werewolf mate. The other six pups died before reaching adulthood, but Cheshire survived...and Changed.

Having spent his first two years in a canine body, Cheshire is more comfortable with his wolf forms than many of his pure-blooded kin. She's also a good deal more doggie-like than the average werewolf, but she currently spends most of her time in human form. I've tried to meld all three elements of Cheshire's ancestry into these drawings - the wild wolf, the friendly dog, and the multifaceted human. Cheshire's primary model sheet will display his human body and facial features, but my ultimate goal is to express the character's personality no matter what body he's using at the time.
