Drew them at 1AM today before going to bed because I needed some time to relax as I felt anxious about tons of stuff.
It permitted me to test what I knew about anatomy and how a skull works. Oh I used no references but thanks to that lack of concrete informative material at least now I know that I need to work on skull mechanics later on, after I'm done with commissions and all.
Also I'm a bit disappointed in the second one, it was first supposed to look like a bovine but turned out looking like an ovine. e_e"
The third one is totally random and looks creepy but I sorta like it. xD As for the first one, I wanted to kill some time and work on the type of face build I like. I think it looks simple but that adding another feature would ruin it. Plus it reminds me of a closed species I've already seen here on dA I think? Can't remember well but I suspect it to be so. x)

Each was inspired from different animals:
1st: Leopard | Ball Python | Bull Terrier |
2nd: Unicorn | Muskox | Wolf | Ram |
3rd: Elephant | Boar piglet (markings) | Star-nosed Mole | Amargasaurus |

As soon as I've brushed up on my skills concerning anatomy I'll create more of these. It's super interesting and fun to do even when you're tired. And let me tell you that the design(markings, color values, ...) part is as difficult as the anatomical one to get right (that's why they're black and white atm). The two have to mix well to keep everything clear and visible.
I've always wanted to try creating some "alien" creatures and even though I'm not a pro I'm willing to practice more to get better at creating beasts from scratch. Next time I'll try to get inspired by more specific animals that have interesting face anatomy or abilities -and why not try to draw full bodies this time? Which could be super hard interesting too~

Hope you like them~
