Research on Head Shape: Dinosaur Heads and Horse Armours

I am looking for a very strong head shape for my Creature like the ones some types of Dinosaurs had and were excellent defence against enemies. So this 'shield' thought process brought me to Horse Armours aswell. I like the interesting shapes of them and how they make any one look super bad-ass!  :D

Insomnia kicks in: Time to Draw!

Right it's nearly 2am and I finally felt like drawing cartoon animals. Maybe I've been looking at them a lot lately :P

Sea Creature Concepts- 1 & 2

Just a couple of  quick Sea Creatures inspired by Horses-obviously. But I think they are a bit too much of horses :/

Inspirational Animals and Locations

So this is a huge list of Animals that inspire me. I am looking into elegant creatures which flow gracefully and have some grasping features. I love the horse manes, the way the flying fish glides on water, the lionfish's antennas, the sea shells' complex structure with spikes and how the swan stays on water as if it flies in the sky.

Some animals features have inspired me too like hooves, bird legs and antlers. There is so much I want to do and I don't know where to start from.

       

Here are some beautiful beaches I found online. I can imagine my creature being born out of the waves that are generated from the crash of the water with the rocks near the sea side.

Combining Animal Skeletons-Part 1

So this looks quite awkward. I tried to combine animal skeletons according to their skills. Like combining an excellent swimmer with and excellent jumper or a good runner with a flyer. But there is still something not right about them. Need to do more..
