I already expressed my thoughts on hippogryphs in the description of the palomino, so I'll just content myself with pointing out what a complete texture freak I am. Also, see what I mean about proportions? I'll get it right someday, mark my words.

My thought on hippogryphs is aren't they suppost to be half gryphon and half horse? Well if that's true and gryphons are half lion and half eagle than they're suppost to have 1/4th lion in there somewhare.

I seem to think the neck is a bit to long, but as you posted on another of your pic's these griffs are very hard to make visualy pleasing...

Congrats! I just did a search for a picture of a hippogryph that actually looked good. This is the first one that I actually like. This is saying something since I got 7 pages of search results and this was on page 6.

-Also, on a side note, I think the longer neck and legs on the hippogryph go a long way into actually making it visually pleasing.

hippogriffs and griffons are sorta awkward, because an eagle’s hindlegs are portrayed as their front legs in them. and so people still draw them as they are on an actual eagle, with the ankle bending inward, towards the back... nice tho.
