Description omg... I have never done this much trad art in a row xD At least not since my HP fanart days

ANYWAYS. A LOOOONG time ago I came up with the random idea to draw myself as a Gryphon (or however anyone spells it) simply because my username has been "gryffinrose" for years... and I've never drawn myself as one xD

I originally drew this ages ago and just left it to rot. But I decided to touch up some of it and just color it for the heck of it. She's composed of my 5 favorite colors (in order) Purple, blue, black, pink, and green... and even a little brown... because I love that color too. She's kind of some freak mix between a peacock, a swan, and a tiger? Peacocks have always been some of my fave animals... they (and the tiger, actually) were one of my favorite reasons for going to the zoo when I was a kid x)

So anyways, the drawing's a little aged, so I know it could have been a lot better, but the coloring will be the main focus, I hope. Since I did all that today in about 80 minutes xD

Now my only wonder is if I should seriously make this a form of Rose... because I kind of like it xD And I could totally draw it better the next time - I'm sure this drawing is almost (if not) a year old xD;;; (is it like totally obvious that I'm starting to add feetfluff onto everything? xD *can't help it, she loves it too much*) she kind of looks like a hippie... or something xD

BUT YAY I FINISHED IT!!!11

Oooh, I love this...I'm a swan gryphon too, so I'm biased towards them, plus I have a passion for peacocks (especially white ones)...This is truly lovely! *saves it*

Ya know, Swan, on that note I outta take a pic of the Chinese shell peacock in my room for ya! (shells of marinelife guled on a feltboard to look like feathers, in the shape of a peacock) I didn't know ya liked white peacocks! You'd really enjoy this I'd think!

I have 6 words I'd like to say: The world needs more gryphon art!

This just awesome! The combination of the swan, peacock and tiger are really unique, and I LOVE the colours! Yay for pastels!

Looks great, pretty cool other than the usual lion/eagle type of griffin It's so pretty, with the colors and slim body; Great job 8D

The colouring is VERY beaitiful I think - it blends together very nicely and looks very smooth (you could almost reach out at touch it!)

...Also...That is, one...Unique, Gryphon xD *school mascot is a gryphon so I'm used to seeing the typical Eagle/Lion mix* I like the idea of a swan, tiger and peacock in the mesh! Makes it TRUELY the GryphonRose

Also, I'm loving the draped fur on the hind legs <3

Gryphon would be the COOLEST school mascot!! O____O *totally jealous!!!* 'Course we were the Indians... and that was totally badass, so I can't complain xD *loved being an Indian*

And thank you! It is kind of random, but I couldn't really picture Gryphon GryffinRose looking any differently xD;

It totally was and still is all contoversee'd We did our best to respect the culture, though - that's why we never allowed "cartoony" t-shirts or why we never got a mascot. The rule was that we had to use the official image only - and that was fine with us x) Our uniforms were just black and red with an arrowhead spear on the side :3 GO INDIANS!

AIIIEE! *glomps teh Gryffin-Rose* SO PURPLE!

*ahem* Now that I've recovered from my attack of stupidness, the colours are awesome! *is reminded faintly of the Mystery Machine* I love how the tail looks, peacocks are really cool, even when they attack you XD I used to try and draw peacocks all of the time when I was ickle, only they ended up looking like they'd been through a cheese grater o-o

... Because I can! *is hyper*

Oh very colorful and pretty! You should draw yourself like this more often.

At the zoo near me they let the peacocks run wild and you can find them all over and near by the zoo.
