I have found this technique to be very beneficial when trying to get to grips with a creature/animal! I have also really enjoyed this experiment and will apply this in future to get a feel for a character, as i feel i am learning basic positioning of a creatures structure - where the bones appear just below the surface of the skin and how the muscles look.
Most importantly i have learnt to be able to fill in the gaps- from the shape of the skeleton i have been able to work out where the muscles connect and how the overall shape of the creature joins together.
I am really pleased with the second of the two images as i feel i have managed to keep the energy in the creature.
Possibly aa angle that you wouldn't have naturally drawn - good stuff
