I got tired of trying to convert human and animal poses into the mishmash style that I draw in all the time. Could never figure out how chins and jawlines worked, much less find any decent references, so I went back to the basics after being inspired by a few posts on here.
Used the Loomis Method for a regular human head, stylized that to be more rounded with a smaller chin, then sketched a generic furry head in my style on top of that skeleton. This is all to help me better visualize how muzzle angles look on non-feral heads, since my characters are more human based.
These references are uh, not very accurate though, and I don't encourage anyone to use them for reliable or realistic references. However I do encourage you to try this exercise though =D Start with a Loomis method human head, and convert it into the art style you feel most comfortable with <3 Either way I hope this helps or at least inspires someone.
tl;dr I couldn't find any good furry head references so I made my own, with blackjack, and hookers.

yea using a loomis method for a start is a good idea. though me i started with dragon chars, and ended up making snouts/muzzles too long in allot of cases XD
I figured it was a good start for me since I base my heads more around human anatomy than feral animal anatomy. There needs to be more methods out there for artists that DON'T only draw humans ;w;
This is going to help me figure anything other than front and profile views. Thank you!
This was really helpful as I am bad at drawing angles and I normally just draw either front view or side view, can u do muscular anthro body angles please as I know more people than just me wanna draw muscular anthros on certain angles, it would help a lot
Aww, I'm glad this helped you out! I'm not that good at muscles either to be honest despite it being a popular subject on here. I do have some other references I can suggest though!
https://freephotomuscle.com/ - is a site that has a bunch of free-to-use japanese stock images in everyday or silly poses.
https://www.posemaniacs.com/ - A site with a ton of models showing the innerworkings of muscles that you can rotate in a 3D space
https://terawell.net/en/index.php - A free (unless you want to save/upload models) 3D pose program that has sliders to let you toggle muscles or other features onto a model.
And as always, Proko on Youtube is a great starting point to learn the basics of drawing and anatomy =D

Ahh bless you so much, I've been looking for something like this to give me a better idea as I practice studying furry heads! ⸜(。˃ ᵕ ˂)⸝♡
