These started as a bunch of random pose-practice sketches a while ago... and then I decided to add some quick lines, shading and submit them as skins here, just for fun.

I can't promise that there will be more gryphon skins, or other species drawn later. It really depends if I have time or not. Busy, always got lots of other things to draw :) but if you want a different colouration of these existing bases, feel free to suggest.

Peafowl gryphs, this pose was enjoyable

 

Ribbon dancing gryphs

 

 

Leaping (well, landing) gryphs

 

 

Curly gryphs, were originally meant to look like Frizzle chickens but it didn't quite work

 

Electric gryphs, started from same pose as the peafowl

Fire gryphs

 

Flowery gryphs

  

Ice gryphs

Random musical gryph, uh, I couldn't be bothered to do more colours x)

Chicken gryphs, will do more real-life colours later ;)

Finally some birds

Will submit them all in a minute, don't know if/when they'll be useable. They won't cost any gold coins.

Oh my goodness, Marans, you are so talented!!!!

Now I need a stable full of gryphs!

You wouldn't happen to like doing unicorns....? I have so many beautiful unicorns that need a skin, and I've used most of the ones I like. Could you do a beautiful cremello, perhaps? :)

And could you maybe do some rocs? I have a lightning roc with massive wings that is just crying out for a skin :D

I think you'd really make a lot of silver around here while making the artwork look utterly amazing.

I'd like to try all species eventually. As said before, it really depends when I have free time. Just got some new commissions to start today, and will seek more in January... gonna be drawing/animating like a maniac all month haha.

Unicorns (horses) are my favourite things to draw though, so yes, would love to start sketching some of those soon. Any particular poses or themes you have in mind?

I'm in love with cremello Akhal Tekes. You know the horse with the metallic sheen? They look like they're made of gold.

Also would you do a series of arabians of various colours? Really delicate and beautiful?

If you do this I shall give you a Present :))

I absolutely LOVE these! You are so talented! I could almost draw like this, but never digital, only by hand. If only there were some way to submit traditional drawings as skins lol.

But really, I need to get myself some good gryphons for these skins! My favorite colors are the peafowls, and my favorite pose would definitely have to be the leaping/landing one!

Hello Marans! Would you by any chance be up to drawing my horse Artemis for me? I'd be happy to send some pics and discuss potential poses for her skin. She is a paint quarter horse (brown and white). I can provide pictures when I am not on my phone. 

Let me know if you are open to commissions and what you are looking for!

 

Thanks!

It's been a while, sorry about that. Things have been really busy lately!

Nightingale - I'm not sure if I have time to draw custom-custom (does that make sense?) skins, but soon there'll be some unicorns, perhaps one of them could be modified to resemble your horse? If there's a pose you like.

Well, here are some quick simple bases, just doodling wings the other day... I haven't started colouring them yet. They look plain gold for now.

I love that you've done them in such an intimate style. In heraldry they'd be called Regardant.


Can pls be horsy tiem nao?

Thanks! And sorry, I know your unicorns are still waiting...

Just lazily coloured a few more gryphons. x) They're available to use now.

Your chickens are lovely, the ice one is so stately, but my heart belongs to the up-rearing blue one :3

Sketch of a unicorn with a set of decorations :D

Might add more types of armour/costume, I find it's very relaxing to sketch flowy ribbons and beads and flowers etc, to fill a space or fit them around a creature's pose.

BearyCute, thank you!

This is not a new skin, but a redraw as I loved the pose/design and wanted to try again with my normal style. If I redraw another, it'll be the electric one. Not fond of any of the other poses.

Coming soon, unicorns.
