A really, really old picture that's been up here for as long as I've had an Elfwood gallery:  a rainbow coloured fire-type gryphon thingier.

Colour pencil. January 2002

Appropriately named, no offense but it doesn't look like a griffin...Oh really? You're the expert on how gryphons should look, eh?

I think this looks like a cross between a gryphon and a phoenix but who knows thats just what I see.

anyway the color on this(like all you others) is great!

It is beautifull indeed, but I know there are always pictures which you hate yourself but others like... wierd people... and I'm one of them cause I find it an awesome drawing! Aspecially because of the subtle colours running into each other. And.. nice eye!!!

Me! Maybe, unless someone's already take it. The 100 spot, that is. This is really cool, I like how you can't realy call it a griffin, and can't really say it's a phoenix either. It's got a great dual quality to it. Is that an ear behind it's eye?

Was it a griffin or phoenix, it's brilliant! I like the colours too... Cannot say anything else, fine work 2

OHHH...so it was THIS one that inspired me to draw my freaky bird-thing! I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this one ^_____^
21 Oct 2004:-) Hannah Cone
Wow. wow. wow. This is so cool. It is so original, not at all like the traditional depiction is. Go originality! hehe anyways .. . great muscle structure on the neck, there. that's something i need to work on personally. Excellent job!!! awesome awesome stuff.

It is amusing how some people think they know exactly what a Mythical creature looks like... considering they're Mythical. I like your rendition very much.

It's expression is captivating. Your shading is spiffy!
