Oo..very good!
I have the distinct feeling that you were looking through the Gryphon tutorial at neondragonart.com/dp while you were drawing this. Am a right? *hopeful look*

And you call that a backgroud!!! psh.

1 Darren J. Rigler replies: "yes i do! it was for a silk screen, so i didnt want to put too much into it, making more of a backround would have taken away from what i wanted to show the most...of course...even so...the watermarks show more :'( even though i didnt have too many...they are still annoying"

1 Darren J. Rigler replies: "the silks look a lot better than i remember them...except all those crappy LOTR ones XD those were horrid *gags*"

I like this one. It seems like he would be very graceful in flight. And this is kind of off-topic but I noticed that you mentioned LotR in another comment. I'm reading RotK right now and it's really good. I just hope they don't kill it on film. It will be awesome if they keep it close to the book. Sorry about the random comment but I'm proud of myself for finally getting aroud to reading them.

Hey, great job there! This is the first really good drawing I've seen of a gryph lately. For some reason I've been really into them in the past few weeks, and am trying to get better at drawing them. I absolutely love how you did the wings. Those are monsterously difficult. Also, great job with the talons, the whole two forelegs are awesome. I've never seen the tail done like that but it's really cool.
