Boar skull sketches

Again, more studies of boars, this focusing on aspects of their skulls. Here I have been looking at the jaw line, but perhaps more so at the size of it; looks like there's a lot of strength behind a joint that big. The teeth, with all their killing potential, seem to be quite close together in an almost interlocking shape. I might experiment with moving them apart in my hybrid designs to see what affect that might give. The tip of the skull is much different from a humans; much more pointed however still retaining the smooth curves typical of the skull.
