Yup! Just follow the references! There's a lot of skeletal similarities between us and dinos; you just gotta look

Have beak TFs been featured in any recent films? I recall that the "Manimal" television series from 1983 included a falcon transformation sequence. It had a series of images that included the lips forming a beak, but also focused on feather growth and morphing of a human eye into an avian eye.

I can't say I do. Well, there was Animorphs, but those were cheap merge effects XDDD

There is no "right' or 'wrong' way of drawing,
so thus there is not 'right' or 'wrong' way of dawing TF art.
the best thing is to have fun.

True, but there is a "more logical" and "less logical" way to do a TF.

You can have a guy having his knees shift backwards when he changes into a wolf. Is this "wrong?" Technically, no, but a lot of people won't like it because it isn't anatomically correct. What I'm trying to demonstrate here is something called believability. It is true you can have a person change however you want, but I'm here to show how you can do it in a way that makes the readers believe your character is actually changing into an animal. It's like dragons; there is no right way of drawing them, but if you have a dragon with wings growing on its butt, people aren't going to believe it, and therefore they won't like it.

There is no one right way of doing a good TF, as I said in the tutorial, but there definitely is a way to do it so your art looks professional, and believable.
