Description
One of a series of black and white illustrations for a fantasy RPG guidebook.

This was one of a couple of "tall" pieces intended to take up half a page (the other half would then have text put in.
There's so many depictions of werewolves out there and for me they usually vary on a sliding scale from okay to god-awful (a notable exception being when gary oldman appears as that wolf/man/thing in Bram Stoker's Dracula, that one's terrific, go figure)
There isnt really any solid consensus in either monster movies or the folktales that preceded them as to whether a lycanthrope turns into straight up wolf, or just a wolf-like creature. I personally prefer the idea of werewolves just turning into wolves, and I think of this guy as being in mid transformation still, but I wanted to leave it open.
