Here's the attack of the Griffon revisited for a commission from Kit. He did a sketch of what he wanted and I did the rest. I like this version very much as it's much more powerful than the previous one.

The light in this picture is just awesome.

I like this version better too. I think u captured the expression of the griffon better, u can tell he's stabbed. in the other one it took me a second to even notice a blade was in him.

It seems my design is popular. Of course, it's all YOUR colors, Sophie! Maybe we should do another.

Wow ! Je préfère cette version-là à l'autre - il y a plus de fantastique et de glorieux dans la posture du griffon ! Ca fait vraiment le combat du preux chevalier contre le monstre ! Le contraste des ailes sur le décor n'est pas mal non plus! 12

Powerful! The white fur is almost cuddly, and the white wings seem almost angelic, which wonderfully contrasts with the blood and the violence of the gryphon as it rears up before the warrior it intends to kill. The setting appears to be some sort of rocky outcropping, so it appears that the gryphon will impale itself on the sword in lunging onto the warrior and then they will topple down off the cliff together to their deaths. Poor Erin, poor Griffon! A very well done pic.

love the art, love the design, and love the background. the only thing is Griffons only attack when provoked.

once again, brilliant feathered wings. you must teach me how to do them. the only thing i don’t really like is the blue hair of the guy who’s stabbing the griffin but that’s just my personal preference. also, try a sunset sky, sunset colours would intensify the battle scene. well done for a great picture though

The thrust angle of the sword is prefect, you can sense the entry wound in the Griffin !
Very Nice!!
