Description
So, nobody technically asked me to do this, but many people asked ... questions, so, here you have it.I hope it'd be of some help if I can give any.
So yes, this is a tutorial on creature design, not on how to draw the creatures you design, that is up to your own practice... well, technically everything is. But this is my speciality I guess, and there are people far more qualified to teach you how to draw or paint.

This is an excellent guide for designing creatures.
No one may have asked for it specifically, but I'm very glad you made it. I'll be sure to keep all this in mind...and no doubt double check it...next time I create a critter.

Oh my sweet fancy jeebus.
This answers just about every problem I ever had with my creature designs. Plus, those example critters are quite kickass. You can bet I'll be using this VERY frequently.

In general, a good reference to have. :3 I especially like the way you used the lion and rhino through the entire tutorial, and came up with so many different possibilities.

Hey, don't you know about a site where they describe morphological the differences between a regular sized animal and a huge one?
Like body parts proportions, nature of the skin, etc
There's some visual aspects that are evident, but I'd like to get deeper knoledge of how it works.
I've tryied to find something like that throught the net without results.

This is similar to how I do creature design, or at least the mixing of animal parts (so that they mix well, not that they're pasted on) is how I do things. You bring it to the next level with some very helpful incite, and seeing this tutorial is inspiring. Thank you

I love this! I have actually been looking for a practical tutorial on hybridizing, and this one did a fine job of answering some of my questions. I particularly liked the size-chart, examples of various approaches to one fusion, anatomical details and the reasons behind keeping certain traits.
Thank you very much~
