SPartial fur werwolves.

a thread for people's opinions and outlooks on that newer breed of werewolf.

that is built like an athlete, and has a head like a wolf, and maybe even the tail, as well as clawed feet and hands, but the fur is only up to the elbow, up the knee, a little on the chest below the fur covered neck, and if not wearing cloths covers the pubic area.

but other wise not completly fur covered.

Sounds like the werewolves in Dog Soldiers.

They were kinda cool, I guess. I prefer full-furred ones, but partial fur is kinda nifty in it's own way.

I drawn and render them all the time, but the main reason why I like em is because of technical issues.

fur is difficult to coordinate in 3D and very demanding on rendertime.

I prefer werewolves with fur all over, but if done properly, I guess a partial-furred werewolf could look cool.

Gota be fur all the way! To me the partial fur ones just look naked, even if they're wearing clothes.

That would depend on how Wolfish they look. I could live with a Werewolf that was fur covered on the Head and shoulders, forearms, loins and tail, and below the knee with digitigrade feet. Such a creation would have to be rather buffed, either female or male; or they'd look really ugly...like Underworld's Werewolves.

That's my two bits....

I gotta agree, those areas need fur to look good. but it shouldnt be bare skin on the rest, more like really fine fur like on a cats nose. i actualluy prefer this look to a complete pelt, because they are werewolves after all, the human half has to show too.

Ugh, I can't stand that style. They look like they have a bad case of mange.
Yuck.

That's kidna acceptable to me-- so long as they have FUR fur, not curly human-body-hair crap. Then it's just a hairy dude.

Honestly most of this type I don't like, but I can see how it could work.

Here is a few that are around, granted I didn't like Dog Soldiers

didn't look good, looked like a low budget for costumes

but the thinner fur on the main body looks good in concept with these main parts having thicker fur.
