Finally good work on rising of flaming birds! Few people seem to get the point.
I want to use it as Facebook cover. Is it ok?

As long as you credit me for it, yes. If you can send me the link, too it'd be appreciated (I'd friend you just for that )

The Magirangers think the Garuda is more bird type than the Phoenix.

My design is based on a crane rather than a peacock like most phoenixes are (especially the japanese Suzaku. The only thing I took from the phoenix mythology is the flame-rebirth legend and the warm colors. What I kept from the actual Garuda mythos is that it is a very large divine bird.

Honestly, I'd rather not... I have allowed it to be used a few times, but it is part of a personal project.
Thanks for asking though! It's always flattering that people want to use my work

It's so colorful the things on fire! Oh wait, it's supposed to be on fire. I guess it isn't as funny anymore.
Amazingly done, good work!

I was actually a bit lucky with the outcome The garuda in legends is not officialy like a phoenix, but is quite often associated with it. So I took my inspiration from that.

Its the same link, at the bottom of the screen, there should be a tab that says "Credit for background" It has a link to this page. Thanks ahead.
