Homemade Werewolf (and Werecat) Animation, Part 2 (Werewolf/Werecat Transformations)

This is a sequel to my earlier post on amateur/homemade animation. Let's start with this fast but very fluid werewolf transformation:




The same artist, Eric Strother, surpasses this with a superb and beautifully smooth puma transformation--look at how the entire process occurs in one shot, with no cutaways:




Next comes a finely detailed werewolf transformation from Luis M. Pérez Suárez, showing a gentleman enjoying his change into a well-muscled lycanthrope. This TF uses cutaways to good effect:




We'll take a brief detour out of 2D animation with "An American Werewolf in Maya." I think this is better than many of the transformations we see in computer-animated cartoons:




An anonymous comment on my earlier post reminded me that I forgot to include one of the greatest amateur werewolf animations of them all. Created back in 2004 by William Short of "Voria Studios", this is a definite classic:

In many respects it's an example of the archetypal modern werewolf transformation: shots of the expanding back developing ridges and bursting through clothing, extreme muscle growth, and snout formation--all accomplished with cinematic direction and an excellent soundtrack of moans, groans, and snarls.

Hellblazer (Werewolf Transformation)

First off, I'm back! Apologies for the gap between updates--I moved to a new room and had to clean and find occupants for my apartment. Now the only room left to clean is my own, and I have time to post some transformation tidbits for you. Today's updates are all from comics, but I have several videos lined up for the weeks ahead. Nothing current though--this has been a dry period for TF fans, especially with disappointments like Hemlock Grove. But hopefully these scans will serve as a stopgap.

In Hellblazer #292, John Constantine gets scratched by a werewolf and becomes a rather studly lycanthrope...

I, Zombie (Dog Transformation)

I, Zombie #6 amusingly features a character who turns into a were-dog, or to be more precise, a were-terrier...

Monster-Size Hulk (Werewolf and Hulk Transformations)

Monster Size Hulk #1 features a meeting between Bruce Banner (the Hulk) and Jack Russell (Werewolf by Night). The two meet in their human forms, and Banner locks Russell in a cage right before the full moon. And then all hell breaks loose...a pity the art isn't clearer.

The Darkness Versus Eva (Werewolf Transformation)

The Darkness Versus Eva, Daughter of Dracula #1 (whew! long title) opens with a scene on a subway, showing a blond werewolf harassing a passenger. Why don't we see blond werewolves more often?

Wolverine 1000 (Werewolf Transformation)

The comic Wolverine 1000 features a story set in World War II, with everyone's favorite hairy Canuck battling Nazi werewolves. I've included the before and after pages to give some context.
