I absolutely adore the anatomy you've gone for here. The stance that the Howler has reminds me of the Chalicotherium. I imagine this animal to run on his knuckles to avoid getting that long middle claw stuck in the mud! Do you have any plans to open a Patreon / paid learning program for your work? I've always admired your style and love all things creature design!

Cool critter! Very great style on the mouth and claws making him look monstrous and dangerous.

thanks
mouth/teeth structure is a pet peeve of mine, I notice a lot of artists don't keep in mind the way the jaw hinges on their creatures and how teeth should be positioned based on the hinge angle.
got any pet peeves like that?

I get you haha, I hate the overly lumpy things XD Need some curves n straights, not curves on curves for the whole thang.

I agree, and over use of soft brush and specularities where it's all hyper rendered plastic lol

WI think more dark hair, this is exactly how I imagine the creature from Dean Koontz's Watchers looks. Terrifying (in a good way).

I know the feeling. There is a movie but don't bother... But I really like the concept of this intense guy.

Those claws would be ideal for swinging through tree branches.

yea they are meant for climbing and disemboweling, in my mind they are act like baboons.
deadly pack hunters that overwhelm their prey in numbers.
