Anyway, griffin, cliffs, lots of help over at CA. Thanks for that.

Oh the shading is so neat and really makes the shapes pop out…incredible work, the light blues and tans compliment each other very well. I love the clouds streaking across the sky, it draws the viewer to the griffin. A+

If I’m not really familiar with drawing something, I have trouble when drawing so I can get it ‘right’, and I end up re-doing a part like 88358458 times, so that lengthens it too haha. I know how you feel it can be frustrating, especially if you feel you aren’t being productive |:

This is one of your nicest and most-awesome pictures,I think :)
I love the angle and how you expressed perspective effectly with the colors.

btw,I think the right wing of the griffin looks a little awkward.
I think it should be pointing bit to the griffin's body,especially when the left wing is so bent to the inside.
but that's just me,and sorry if you didn't want to hear any crits.

Nah, I'm always up for crits. I've gotten out of the habit of putting 'advanced crit encouraged' as I have CA for crits now.
I was thinking that myself, too. Well, I thought of not having the bent wing comming more towards the viewer, but... yeah.

Thanks much, too!

This is so amazing, the colours work so well together and everything is so crisp and clean. The clouds give it a lovely atmosphere!
