I'll post a link once it's live, but if you're looking to catch up on the Gryphon Insurrection before The Ruins of Crestfall releases next month, there's a boxed set of the first three coming out in the next few days =]
@picturedragon Oh my gosh, Michael Whelan's covers (well, the huge cardboard displays, book marks, and posters of them) are what first made me go into the fantasy section of the book store as a kid. Have you seen his covers for Melanie Rawn's dragon books? Swoon.
@FantasyFaction @BernieAnesPaz Seconding =] I loved Cradle of Sea & Soil. Just look at that cover. And the words inside were great, too!
@JeanLeggett @werezompire Definitely Legend of Mana. Watching a friend play it now, and I'm always impressed by this game. Been a long time since I was a kid, but the more time that passes, the more I think this may have been the best RPG I played back then.
It's beautiful and the storytelling is A+.
@Vraerai Congratulations on hitting 5k! I'd love to see you do a peacock gryphon, so here are some references for Brevin!

@Tricksterburd @MamaCoo_ Way back with my first gryphon book, @.smatterbrain was nice enough to do some sketches on extinct gryphons with me while I was figuring out one of the character designs. We didn't do cassowary/sabertooth, but we did try out sabertooth + terror bird as one of the ideas:
@GaoRyuki Okay, sounds like it should get fixed in the next few days =] Thank you for the heads up. It was just the Canadian store, and a few people got their copies back in April from it, which is even weirder.
Crisis averted! Back to writing book.
@asthelilyflies Oh! We're cover artist siblings, it sounds like =] Jeff works with a lot of big publishers, small publishers, author collectives, and indie authors. I feel like he must do a hundred amazing covers a year sometimes. Here's a few he's done for me recently. Are you fantasy or scifi?
@picturedragon Yay, ear tufts =] Shout out to all the caracal and lynx gryphons.
