Howling III: The Marsupials (1987) was filmed entirely in director Philippe Mora's native Australia. The already low budget film had another problem: the fact Australia didn't really have a seasoned special effects artist scene, unlike the USA, UK or Japan. Australia wouldn't get a heavy FX scene until Farscape was made in the country a decade later!
To realize Howling III's various creatures, Mora turned to Bob McCarron, one of the few notable makeup artists in Australia at the time. McCarron had already provided the elaborate boar puppet and some facial prosthetics for Russell Mulcahy's Razorback (1984).
One highlight of McCarron's work is the 'were-thylacine' (it's clunky I know) that Max Fairchild transforms into. Facial prosthetics were made for Fairchild's early stages of transformation, as well as a rudimentary 'change o head' puppet. The final suit seems to consist of a bodysuit with fur applied, as well as sculpted taloned gloves, and a thylacine mask with mechanisms allowing the jaws to open and close. I love that they remembered to keep the stripes and small ears that the real thylacines had.

More than a makeup book, Beauty of the Beast is a transformation manual by special effects makeup artist Emily Schubert. Learn how to create a scar, remove a tattoo, and make someone look decades younger—or like a corpse. Based on Schubert’s years of experience in the film industry, this book is both a crash course in the world of SFX makeup and a portal into how you can manipulate the human face to tell a story.

PROSTHETIC MAKE-UP.
— "test footage from the on camera head shave of Coriolanus, probably the most nerve wracking effect we created for the film".

Some of the more impressive, albeit sparsely shown makeup effects in Howling II: Your Sister is a Werewolf (1985) which had its special effects overseen by Jack Bricker.
I'm not sure who was responsible for the much more wolf-like werewolf mask that is only seen in brief close-up shots. And there is the little gargoyle puppet, based on the same sculpt as the static gargoyle mounted on Stirba's staff prop.
