The background is stunningly beautiful here! The gryphon looks like that is a scene in which he belongs- his white and black wings with the clouds, moon and black sky...
Anyway, real crits- The legs are awesome, but his head seems a bit too small. I 'unno, I draw wolves and lions, so maybe I am just in a habit of drawing longer snouts, but still. I like yoour transition from fur to feathers. It blends nicely and makes sense; it isn't choppy. Very nice pic! Molto bene!

    I agree that the head's kinda small. All the references I had for the gryphon had a smaller head. I figure it was just how the gryphon was. ^_^ I've seen a few 'pinhead' animals. Larger bodies with small heads, mostly mutt animals like my cat or my friend's dog. XD

    And thank you! The background was actually pretty simple. Adobe Photoshop 7.0 has a brush that looks like a faded oval that if you just tap it, it creates a cloud effect. >_> I use it a lot but it always creates a nicer effect than I can with just freehand.
