Another essay on black paper: a random anthro gryphon, starting to get somewhat annoyed with the artist's demands.... (Thinks: I've always wondered what Humans taste like....) 7@=e Irrelevant note: the pose was inspired by a daguerrotype of John Quincy Adams, for no intelligible reason.

He does look pretty bored. Neat idea! This reminds me of that Lovecraft story "Pickman's Model" where the guy draws realistic creatures and people wonder where he gets his ideas.

If you look at his face just right... espec. the eyebrows... it begins to sort of resemble John Quincy Adams.

I recalled seeing the Adams picture you're talking about on Google at some time or another and went back to find it again. You got the body position and his expression down GOOD.

One reason people in pictures from the 1840's thru probably late 1850's looked rather grim was the slow speed of the film and lenses, it would take I believe, 15 to 30 seconds for a photo to be made and during that time the subject had to hold thier breath & not move to avoid any blurring, though with that slow a speed I would assume some *very* minor movement was possible without causing trouble...

The griffin looks so serious and professional (maybe a little bored?)!
Great work!

This image is WAY too disturbing, even for bad puns! Great work, Lucius 22
