Description
Hi buddies ! I have no idea where have my last few days gone, but I finally painted a gryphon - as I wanted. I have been struggling with different poses and decided to take this one, because it looks...hm... majestic ? Maybe. Oh yeah, I should add that this pose was inspired by some sketches of the great Todd Lockwood. You should definitely go and watch his amazing gallery. Anyway, I've got a little problem with this painting, because I don't know how to colour it without loosing the details and the right brightness/saturation. Any ideas, tips, tricks and, of course, C&C are very welcome ! I hope you like it

Looks like Skandranon from The Black Gryphon by Mercedes Lackey (who by chance is the inspiration for my screen name and pic, lol)

I didn't knew about a creature like Skandranon 5 min ago, but now I can really agree with you. But, to be honest, doesn't 80 % of gryphons looks like him ?

Not necessarily. In The Black Gryphon, there were a few different "species" of gryphons
