      <title>Blue hippy by Chrysocome</title>
      <description>A random hippogryph that pranced onto my sketchpad.
The main thing I'm playing with here is colour. It was interesting to go to a palette I'm less familiar with. I also tried to do less generic lighting which didn't work and I just gave up on it. Truthfully, it was just a bit of a playful piece where I wasn't trying very hard. I can't be bothered fixing it and probably never will.

Yeah... I kind of like floofiness :)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="http://chrysocome.artspots.com/image/25748/blue-hippy"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.artspots.com/files/image/file/25748/thumb_210/hippy.jpg" alt="Thumbnail" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Medium: Digital&lt;br /&gt;Tags: Horse gryphon griffin Griffon hybrid blue Eagle colour hippogryph&lt;br /&gt;</description>

      <title>Tykengauka by Chrysocome</title>
      <description>I found this the other day. It's very old - 2003 or so, back when I first started painting digitally - and yet it still stands out as something akin to the kind of work I do today. 
Guess I've made no progress since then :P 

It's Skiarr-Ferino from my old Tykaira story.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="http://chrysocome.artspots.com/image/13474/tykengauka"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.artspots.com/files/image/file/13474/thumb_210/03_gauka.jpg" alt="Thumbnail" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Medium: digital&lt;br /&gt;Tags: dark red raptor falcon cave Eagle eye neon&lt;br /&gt;</description>

      <title>Boophilus microplus! by Chrysocome</title>
      <description>This is what happens after a really really boring Parasitology lecture. I guess it's funnier when you've been subjected to hours of lectures/videos about the wonders of the cattle tick. It's sort of two injokes rolled into one.

We always joked about the critters we find in Veterinary Parasitology being really scary Pokemon with various horrifying moves, and we came up with them to help us learn.

I don't think anyone thought I'd actually get around to doing it though. Demodex (eyelash mite) is soo next. Followed by some form of tapeworm. :D

I think I'd run away if someone threw even a normal sized cattle tick at me. A giant one would involve lots of flailing. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="http://chrysocome.artspots.com/image/11803/boophilus-microplus"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.artspots.com/files/image/file/11803/thumb_210/boophilus.jpg" alt="Thumbnail" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Medium: digital&lt;br /&gt;Tags: pokemon cattle parody tick boophilus microplus parasite&lt;br /&gt;</description>

      <title>August GAX (optional) - Kreb by Chrysocome</title>
      <description>I got Zenedai's Silendre for August GAX. The theme was "colour switch" and there was the option of reversing the switch, so I drew my Kreb in Silendre's colours. 

I suppose not everyone was thrilled about the change...

      <description>A quick smoosh with a set time limit.

      <title>Anatomical recall? by Chrysocome</title>
      <description>No, I have no idea what it's doing.
A greyhound (with an exposed cranium! Eek!) sketch without references. I wanted to see how much I'd actually learnt from anatomy last year. 

Time to hit the books again...
