All right, I'll admit it: this is my first attempt at drawing a gryphon. I apologize for any crappiness, as well as the uncoloured lineart; it was too difficult with the gryphon's mottled feather colours for me to figure out what colour the lines were going to be. The tip of the beak also bothers me, but I'll let you guys crit and comment.
For those curious, this bird-cat's colour is based off of a cobalt, type II yellowface budgie with recessive pied colouring. It's the middle bird in the second row on this page, and it was such in an adorable pose...I couldn't resist. >.< Dangit! XD
For a reference, I used this picture of an eagle on Morguefile. The picture I drew was originall intended to be a full-body, but then I chickened out and made it a headshot. XD I am so pathetic sometimes.
Finally, inspirations for this piece came from Stratadrake and Lizkay, a pair of very talented artists (and Strata's one of FAC's staff, too) that have gryphon pics in their galleries. Their art gave me the confidence to do this piece, so guys, I tip my hat to you for your lovely work and skills. :)
All right, feel free to comment and crit now. All the boring copyright stuff is below, too.
