Description
Edit: 1/13/12Added his human form!
-His new favorite pastime as a human is to get involved in tavern brawls. I forsee jail time in the near future.
-His forearms are naturally protonated, to follow the pigeon-toedness in his gryphon form.
-Legs are proportionally short compared to the body.
-Mutton chops.
-----------------
For #Windsonde ! I've been drooling like a rabid dog over all of the awesome gryphon art for the longest time! But now that school's out...
Aery Name: Skrekrill
Character Name: Dom
Character Species Combination: Steller's Sea Eagle/ Canadian Lynx (Haliaeetus pelagicus/ Lynx canadensis)
Rank: Adult
Clan: Nachtbrag
Gender: Male
Character Personality: Dom is somewhat of a meathead. His love in life is brawling and wrestling, though he will not draw blood unless provoked. His favorite attack move is the headbutt, especially when it's used against some stuck-up Grandesque. With all the headbutting, Dom has lost a few brain cells here and there; he's not the brightest of the bunch. Other gryphons will often take advantage of this and get Dom to do their dirty work.
Other notes: Dom is slightly pigeon toed and has long talons that tend to get in his way when he walks. He will often run on his knuckles to avoid tripping himself and dulling his talons. Also notice that he has a cute little lynx tail, lynx scruff on his cheeks and a massive Steller's beak. His hind legs are rather short, which gives him a hulking gorilla look.
Does anyone mind if I draw their gryphons for the challenges? (just checking, idk if there's some special convention or anything

Woaah, Sammy doesn't want to test how strong that beak is. 8'D No doubt he'll get on the wrong side of it anyway, but still.
I love his mostly feline face and how you managed to add the beak and the bird-like eyes without making it look weird! Very skillful! I love his wings too! And the fact his shorter hind legs make his stance look like that of a Hyena! I lovelovelove awkward bodies. xD

He looks so cute! Giant fluffy teddy-bear-ish.
Awesome design!
Blight is up for shots, be it noogies or arm wrestling or whatever.

fantastic design, I can really see both of the species in there, yet you've combined them perfectly to create the final creature. I love the 'headbutting' detail in his personality, steller's have such huge beaks its easy to believe they could use it as a mean weapon! [link]
and when I eventually get my ref up (a Grandesque) you would be welcome to use her in challenges

thanks! the pair they have at my local zoo are great to photograph when they come out... they are a breeding pair so tend to keep to themselves in their massive enclosure. Hopefully chicks soon!

Love love LOVE that FACE!! I'll totally have to draw Skooma brawling with Dom sometime, the two seem like they would get along in that respect despite being from opposite aeries. (Skooma loves a good tussle)
Awesome gryph, can't wait to see him in his challenges!
