SciFi and Fantasy Art Trulach by Jennie Lynn Brass, A.K.A Foxy


	My first attempt at a fully computer created image of a gryphon. Trulach was a great accomplishment at the time he was done and has been printed on a T-shirt. His name means 'large storm' in Gaelic, and it seems to fit his expression, he looks like he's a bit under the weather with a large appetite for destruction.

22 Sep 2000	Xiii	Loading... once agin: whut, no comments yet? shees! i luv im! he has a grate expression,like 'Fork you, man!' heh. anyway, lovurly pic, and, PLEEZE tell me, where'd you find out bout those nifty Gaelic names?
10 Oct 2000	Foxy <the artist>	Loading... LOL! My thoughts exactly, Xiii! And the names? I looked up Gaelic/Celtic dictionaries online, found a good one, and searched it writing down any words that hit my fancy. I have long list on my computer that I pull names from when I need them. Hope that helped.
13 Oct 2000	Xiii	Loading... it did! kewl.
5 Nov 2000	Ivy	Loading... hi! i really like this gryphon! totaly kewl! i've been looking all over elfwood trying to find gryphons-- so i can study them and try to draw one of my own-- your looks really great i love it!
9 Nov 2000	Foxy <the Artist>	Loading... <smiles to Ivy> Thank you very much. I've been drawing Gryphons for many years now and only recently have they begun to look decent. All's I can say is keep trying, they'll come.
1 May 2001	Christine E. McLeod	Loading... I like how he seems to be wearing a mask. The moon really highlights the atmosphere of the picture. His wing seems to be a little short, though. Awesome picture.
27 May 2001	Kaluna	Loading... By the way, I love the way you did the head
27 May 2001	Kaluna	Loading... Great work, I have to agree with Christine E. McLeod on the wings, but that might just be because of the shadowing. I can't draw a gryphon for the life of me. They always turn out wrong
8 Jun 2001	Jennie Lynn Brass, A.K.A Foxy	Loading... <chuckles> Give me a break, Guys! That was one of the first pics I did way back in '00 with a scanner program called Photoimpact. No layers, no cool tools... yeah, annoying to the tee! Anyway, It was drawn direct with a mouse and I sorta ran out of wing room <cheesey-sheepish grin> Oh well... long shory stort--err, long story short, yes I know the wing got crimped, but it didn't happen next time! The next pic was Doinionn. He turned out alright. The moral is--keep drawing, you learn about things you screwed up last time.
