I do hope that you don’t abandon your hippogriff concept entirely Melody. Perhaps one day you’ll finish a hippogriff family complete with little foals. Considering how popular your griffins and “hoofers” are, if you were to complete work on a creature that combines their features and color patterns, I’m sure you’d have an item which would sell itself. Who wouldn’t want a zorse or a quagga hippogriff? Some forum members got excited when I mentioned dragoncats and hippogriffs (you could post pics of your dragoncat sculpt here :yes: ) and so I figured that a new thread was in order. I also have a concept for a new type of raffle that I want to run by you via e-mail first before I start setting up polls about it. By the way, is your phoenix going to be produced exclusively as a PYO?

I love the idea of the hippogriff having front legs that are articulated in the same way as a horse’s; it could have the skin of an eagle on the front limbs, but with cloven hooves that resemble talons on them. Or it could have a mane of feathers. The shape of the cranium and the line of the neck on your sculpt is really neat. 🙂

I hope that this thread prompts some interesting discussions, and I might post more art. Personally, I’m very fond of dragoncats, and I would love to see your dragoncat sculpt Melody. Let me know if you’d like to hear about my idea for a new type of raffle.
Wow! Some of those pictures are breathtaking! They’re all lovely! Thank you for sharing them all 🙂

Oh I know , hippogriffs are one of my all-time favorites, because they are open to interpretation anatomically, and there are almost infinite ways they can be painted (though I guess that is true of anything!)I can post a pic of one of the tiny dragon-cat sculptures.The sculpture pic I took the other nite was too out of focus (because it is a very small thing, only an inch or so long) so I did a drawing over the photo in photoshop . It isn’t as pretty as the dragon cats you posted!! 😳 Since this sculpture was intended for pewter, it could have long wings and tail.
Those hipporiffs are wonderful! (…the head of the black and white pinto hippogriff looks familiar…)

Yes, I know! That’s why included it. 😆 I figured you’re probably still in the process of trying to narrow down the design, so I thought it would fun to put my two cents in while mentioning a subject of interest for Windstone collectors. I know that my tendency to fill threads with pictures is rather eccentric, 😳 but in this case, I couldn’t resist. It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words, and I felt that this was the most effective way to throw some design ideas around. :yes: Thank you for your response, it was really sweet. I realized while working on the post that I was inserting a lot of pics, and I wasn’t sure whether or not it was going to make people mad. :scratch:
I posted a blog with some images of the Dragon cats I could find.
