Description A little crash course in Wolf anatomy. Really basic. I'm not claiming to be an expert.

Numbers below correspond to numbers above.

1. In purple are the basic muscles, in black are the basic joints.

2. More of the above - front and back legs are different!

3. More fur goes here, but this is generally a lean wolf's body mass.

4. Basic ears, when upright

5. Basic ears, when down (opening faces outwards)

6. Basic perspective for wolf faces

7. Wolf eye, arrow points towards muzzle

8. Basic muscles from a front view

9. Placement of eyes, nose, mouth, whiskers, whisker-dots

10. Placement of tail

11. Fluffy neck

12. Dew claw, only on front paws, faces inwards (like human thumbs)

13. Paw bump thing... again, only on front paws (on back)

Hope this helps!

You helped me so much! I can finally start my pack that I've wanted to create for so long. My scanner still isn't working so It'll probably be another couple days till it's uploaded.
