These hairy legs!
I don't know why but this 2020 photo has been my most liked and shared image ever. It is truly a pity I lost that Twitter account. Well, here they are again.
Hey! Just here to remind you August 13th is 🐺International Wolf Day🐺!
Let’s honor our wild kin today! May they thrive in freedom and remain undisturbed in their natural homes.
Growing pains, a werewolf feet update. This is just a test, but I like this concept of paws bursting through shoes, surprisingly comfortable to walk with them.
Toes will be matched in colors to the fur, and maybe gluing some fur to better match it.
Any advice for doing that?
New werewolf feet paws WIP!
@WillowCreativ
foam feet paws + barefoot style slim "shoe" = slim profile werewolf feet.
These are even comfortable to wear, but for the digitigrade appearance, tiptoeing is needed.
I believe humans are much more scarier monsters than fictional ones...
Probably a werewolf would be more afraid of you than you of them.
But we must keep reaching out in order to survive.

Is that werewolf wearing a tailcoat tuxedo?
Yes he is!
Some asked me to see Velkan in a formal atire after the NY dandy wolf hype. Formal you say? Well, I like to exceed expectations.
But why?
a) Because I can
b) Because of the LOLs
c) To land a gig as a werewolf model.

Now, give me your hand...
This will hurt a little.
Are you ready?

Imagine there's a spell that can really transform you permanently into a werewolf.
Would you feel safe casting it knowing how people and government treat wild wolves (or any other big carnivore) in your own country?

As I watched the bathroom mirror in disbelief at the beast staring back at me from the other side, realization suddenly struck me:
It was my own reflection!

Samhain / Day of the dead is getting closer, and I can feel it on my old werewolf bones.

"Lead me back to nature's embrace to shed human constraints and be transformed. Teach me the ways of wolves to roam the wilds with kindred souls. Bless me with skills to hunt prey, strength to defend friends from foes, wits to overcome threats, and wisdom to guide my pack forth."

Hey werewolf friend! Feeling down because there is no Moon on the sky tonight?
Have some of my moon light, I hope it makes you feel a bit better.

As I learned to love and accept myself (including all my quirks and peculiarities), I found myself loving werewolves as well, as we have so much in common.
What is your preferred werewolf design?

Happy winter solstice and warm holiday greetings to you all!
Have a lupine xmas and a lycan new year!
And may you stay less stinky than the jerga/baja hoodie worn by the werewolf.
Velkan is now the official name of this build/suit/character, in reference to Prince Velkan werewolf character from Van Helsing (2004) film, and because of its cool meaning (see comment below). I want to thank
@WendallWolf87
for the idea of the name.
This is my best attempt at a selfie in beast mode so far. It is a huge challenge to take selfies as a lycan, this old trail camera did the trick nicely.

Seriously? If you would encounter a freaking werewolf your first thought would be to pet it???
I know I would...

Honest question: How do you call in English the garment* Velkan is wearing?
- hoodie
- poncho hoodie
- baja jacket
- Mexican jacket
- baja sweatshirt
- Mexican baja hoodie
- hippie hoodie
- drug rug
*Please restraint yourself from answering 'fursuit'.

For a slit second though something way larger was following the wolf in this video, although it was just the refraction of the wolf's bright eyes, I guess hope never dies.
Lore on werewolf transformation, a 🧵
Because some of you asked nicely about some of my lore, I will share my concept on lycantropic transformation:

Everybody has their own aesthetic concept of a werewolf, here's mine. Thanks
@Wolfhidewinter
for creating this stunning comission that will be part of my creature reference sheet.
Meanwhile, I think is a crime withholding it from other lycans and werewolf entusiasts here, right?

Loved it!

This poster ended looking like a cool book cover. What would this book be about?
Those maulings can take a toll on your denture. Werewolves also deserve dental care.
A version where R.R.Hood became a dentist with the sole purpose to torture werewolves.
