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.

That's really one of the most concise creature design tutorials I've ever read. Everything is really organized and described well and logically. Have you ever posted it on one of the conceptart.org forums? I think there are a lot of folks there who would find it very helpful.
Thanks for taking the time to put this together!

I'd love to participate in that comunity, but I'm kinda stupid when it comes to create accounts and understanding how things are moving ;_;
Isn't it hard to get in?

No way. No harder than starting an account on here.
There are folks at all sorts of skill levels who participate regularly. It's heavy on crits, learning, workshops, weekly contests... Most folks sign up, start a 'sketchbook' thread which is a sort of homebase where you can regularly update with your work, then particpate in activities, show off finished, professional level work in the appropriate forum... there's a 'crit center' if you're looking for feedback...all sorts of stuff.... even threads for asking technical questions about Corel Painter and Adobe Photoshop.
It's very open.

Very cool tutorial on this stuff. I know I tend to look at living animals for inspiration for my kaiju.
