Monsters - Initial Sketches

I've created a list of emotion names that I want to be the names of monsters in the game - and also have these be reflected in the design of the monster itself. More research is needed into different types of existing monsters and traits associated with the emotions - example, bitterness is like poison - to influence monster design. I turned out a page of sketches I did to get some ideas down and help get me into a mindset for monster design.

 I'm least pleased with the wolf's snout. I've done wolves with little issues before, but rather than risk deformed wolf faces in the future, I need to look up reference photos before trying again.
