Sleepless Gryphon - Painter

Description

"If at first you don't succeed - try, try again."

I stuck with a nice safe profile view this time, so the proportions are better - and this time the feathers are improved! I used Painter Classic for this, loosely based on ~kimbo-demonica's tutorial. I lost track of time while drawing but estimate it at about one hour.

Awesome,you handeled Painter really well.
The feathers look great as well as the overall pic :) (Smile)
As a suggestion i would say to add some deeper shadows on the beak and the upper part of the eye.
Since the moon is to it's right i think it would make your pic a lot more dramatic if the shadows were a bit bolder.
Then you could also add some fire to the eye,some more color.
Oh,and maybe just a bit variation in the sky? some darks on the lower parts some corona on the moon?
i know this is nitpicking,but i feel this is a really great pic,and it would require very little work to get it to look absolutely awesome :) (Smile)
