      I didn’t get any stipulations for this guy except that Kep wanted a gray tabby, kinda like Ski’s. ^_^ So I had free reign. I’m pleased with it…the only thing that bothers me a little is how mono-chromatic it is, but I think the blue and silver accents helped with that. Of course, you can’t SEE the blue and silver accents in any of these pictures!!! 👿 There is interference blue barring on many of the feathers on the top of the wings, shoulders and arms. There’s also a little on his face. There is also silver leaf tipping the top few rows of wing feathers. His arms and beak are painted a mettalic champaigne and his talons are silver. He has tabby markings on the top of his head and his face. There’s a ton of detail on this guy that you just can’t see in the pictures. I tried to make him soft looking – a few of the reference pictures I had were of kittens. 🙂

      More pictures can be seen at the very bottom of my photobucket page:

          Awesome! And it’s funny that I posted a tabby at the same time. I think yours beats mine though. You’re way too good.

            Awww! 😳 I didn’t mean to post mine over yours – just saw yours just now…I think that combo goes GREAT together, the owl and tabby! 😀 And you’re a fantastic painter yourself, Spark (my personal fav is the one you have as your icon)

              *chuckles* Yeah, I still like how my firecat one came out. That’s why I kept it, where I’ve sold off or given away all the rest of my PYOs so far.

              And don’t worry! It’s just kinda funny that we both did very similar griffins at the same time.

                  Hooray! I can’t wait to see it in person!

                  While hiding somewhere in my head I'm on the lookout for white oriental dragons! Please let me know if you know of any available. Thank you!

                    LOL!!! No autographs, please…

                    Well, maybe we’ll just have to do ANOTHER trade, and I can make you a silver tabby to keep your orange company. Ugh, this one was a lot of work, though…so no time really soon…

                      EDIT: The link I posted should actually go where it was supposed to now…for more pictures…sorry about that.

                      You’re the best tabby painter on the forum, Arlla. I really like the thin strip on his face, and his hackle feathers turned out nicely.

                      Ooooh…that’s beautiful…

                      Gorgeous, love the interference accents!

                        LOL! Now you’re getting too good for me to even make an even trade with you. I have to work on my Bubba’s Fund Griffin next anyways. Thank goodness there was no mail today because actually seeing my statement would have ruined my day. LOL!

                        I know you mentioned ‘monochrome’ about this one… but the subtlety of tone and the fact that I can imagine this running round in my garden* I think this is one of the nicest paint jobs on a gryphon I’ve seen so far. Not that I don’t like the others I’ve seen, but I LIKE silver-grey, and the blue eyes are gorgeous and work so well with the colours.

                        I also like the tabby face markings – the scarab and tearlines. Gives him more plausibility.

                        Thanks for sharing!

                        * we’ve got a greyish tabby kitten who lives down the street and visits our cats in our garden.
