The Hippogryph

Painting of the hippoghryph - it is a part of the artwork I did as a cover for the book "Tales of the hipoghryphs"

Full cover to be seen here -> [link]

I am rather happy how it looks, especially that I had only a week to finish it all



Hipppogryphs are maybe not my favorite fantastic beast, I much more like normal gryphons, but I tried my best to made this fella looks nice.

What it the difference between gryphon and hippogryph? The first one is half lion - half eagle, the second one is half horse - half eagle. My version is a nice bay base with stripped feathers, inspired more by a hawk than an eagle. I like stripes :>
