There are some good Wendigo illustrations online, which might also be useful in getting the look.

When I make mythological beasts for this project I'm trying to stick to the contemporary depictions of any given monster.

In this case I only have got this:

[Cubs]

Yeah, that's the illustration I thought you were working off, which doesn't give you a huge amount of detail! A wendigo illustration might give you some better anatomical guidelines, onto which you can sculpt the unique details of that fella. Looks very heraldic doesn't it?

[M.P.]

Yes it's very heraldic. Despite my previous reservations to use wendigo depictions as a reference material - now I'm using it quite extensively .

Thank you , It's a beast/spirit from czech and polish folklore  - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%BCbezahl.

[DintheDin]

Cool indeed and faithfully reconstructed from the illustration! Well done!
