WOO finished it.
Okay I tried colouring this a few times but it was a epic fail. But I wanted to see this finished so I tried again but with my back up plan!
Instead of using colour I used one colour (in this case red) and added shading and extra feathers, once I did that I placed it on a paper background (stock image) and I was left with this! :D

Before this I did a quick sketch, I am not sure which one of the looks the best.
This one with the full shading or the lighter sketch: [link]

Please leave a comment and tell me what you think.
Also this is my first Gryphon so be nice ^-^
I don't know but I feel like the shading on this kind of ruins the original sketch :?


Also anyone care to name him?
Please try to be original and I dont want it Japanese sounding. thanks

Oh wow. Both versions are beautiful.
They both have their perks :D

I think I like this version more but I'm not sure.. :confused:
This is actually very good for your first gryphon... I remember the first one I drew was epic failure.
The anatomy is really good :)

I don't know any names... I'm not too good with them.
Heh. The only name that came into my head was "Belljar" and I don't think that's a name... ^^; heh..

And hehe yeaa... I didn't think so..
But it is quite catchy... hmmm *thinks about using it later on in a story...* :giggle:

I like how the beaks are angular yet soft at the same time. This sketch has a very Dark Lord of Derkholme vibe to it. You should really read that book, you would understand why. Another good book by the same author would be Howle's Moving Castle.

The light shines
With dwindling glory
Yet it still burns like a salty brine.
