I already saw this on dA, but I'm still in awe- the lighting, the emotion, and everything else about this make me feel as though I could reach out and touch them.

Oh Vantid this is truly gorgeous. Yet again you astound me with your detailing and textures. The eyes really pop and the chick is so endearing with all that fluff! Back lighting sure can be fun. I wonder if some red translucence should be coming through the nostrils? I noticed that in the ducks I used to tend that the sunlight in the morning would show through their bills. Like this.

That's fantastic!

I remember this piece from last year, loving it, and I still love it. Someday if you can ever do prints of this, I'd LOVE to own one. This is seriously too beautiful.

Fluffy beeeeeeeeeeeebeee gryphon. :D

This makes me want to draw nothing but feathers until I can get them right. XD

Love it. I love detail, you do really nice detail. I love the eyes, and the black background, it sets it off.

Adorable!! I just wanna hug the cute little fluff ball but I don't think its Mama would be so keen on the idea. Sharp beaks and talons are quite persuasive

I would love to see this come off my printer... It's gorgeous!

Great Scot this good! *Hehe, I just had to say that!* But no, seriously, this is, is, BRILLIANT!! :D
