Yeah, it's a WIP now. I keep finding things that just aren't quite right. The Griff Ov Sorts is complicated, but I'm having FUN. I think I'll leave it as a study, and do an official one page Ref Sheet after I figure everything out. Realized today the tail when flat, needs changed, and I'm still working on my measurements.

EVERYTHING is pretty much accurate.

1. VERY rough skelletal structure. a. Note that the wing is set BEHIND the shoulder of the front leg. (no change)

2. Hard parts of the skull and neck. (no change)

3. Lipless beak structure- showing gums, teeth and tongue. Per quadrant: 1 fang, 3 single point teeth, 3 tripple point teeth. Inner mouth is very doglike. (COLOR! Note the silver hard beak, the reddish pink gums, white teeth, pink tongue, and red-brown skin- also, added color dewlap, yes, it has a mini ridge, like the wings, and 7 lines of tiny purple feathers in white down on redbrown skin)

4. Beak with dewlap- lips are doglike, top fang peeks through, dewlap begins at beak and runs down to throat, 15 rows of tiny purple feathers on silvery white downy base, redbrown skin underneath. (whoops, forgot to scan the new version that includes the ridge)

5. Tongue- very doglike, almost prehensile (no change)

6. Chest, throat and underside of beak- a. Note the cross shaped patch in the center of the chest where the throat joins. (corrected the dewlap, it was too wide, now it's just right!)

7. (Replaced with color pic on next page.)

8. NEKKID TIME! Lol. Hawke, minus her feathers. Showing base structure and scales on legs. Again, note that the wing joins behind the front leg. (Made less 'chubby' looking, added membrane to wings, corrected 'elbow' joint in legs. Added alula, but since I didn't have a ref, I have no idea if it's placed correctly)

9. Eye- Note the double colored iris. The outer is a rich dark brown that nearly fills the eye, the inner is an uneven 'silvery gold', metalic, and very pale, with the slitted pupil inside. Hooded as a hawk. (whoops, forgot to rescan THAT too- looks like I'll be at the comp lab again tomorrow. lol.) See next page for color version.

10. Back Leg- a Metalic Silver platelike protective scales. b- red brown, tough but flexible scale covered skin. c- toes are completely sheathed in platelike scales, giving the appearance of simply terminating in a claw, not a claw in a bed like most animals, more like Disney's Gargoyles. Tabby stripes are broad, and not well defined. No fur on lower leg. (no change)

11. Back foot- showing scale form. Four toes, inner is small and 'thumb like'. (no change)

12. Front leg- a- 'elbow' bends near bottom of chest- cat like b- red brown, tough but flexible scale covered skin. c- Metalic Silver platelike protective scales. Feathers to middle of lower leg, longer in back. Talons are crow like, claws are purple. (no change)

13. Wing Structure- Shoulder to elbow- just behind front leg shoulder to rear hip (just over 1 foot long) (No change to any of these)
14. Wing Structure- elbow (at hip) to wrist in front of front leg shoulder (just under 2 feet long)
13+14 = 3 feet, shoulder to wrist
15. Wing Structure- wrist to feather tips. Feathers terminate behind body (about 4 feet)
total wing span, tip to tip is about 15 feet

16. Wing Structure- underside, inner- a- Longest feather on Hawke's body (third from leading edge) b- final feather who's shaft is within the membrane c- membrane edge d- membrane terminates half way down thigh e- membrane connects along side. The first 14 primary feather shafts are partially within the membrane to connect to the bone. The membrane is underneath the remaining 14 feathers (Added front membrane, skin attaches about where front of leg shoulderblade is)

17. Wing Structure- top side, outer- a- 14 feathers lay on top of membrane b- 14 feathers inside the membrane- covered by other feathers. (Added front membrane, skin attaches about where front of leg shoulderblade is)

18. Back View- Note the tail- 14 feathers per side, parallel to the ground when spread, turn so flush with tail while relaxed. Feathers change to fur half way down back. Dark purple line down spine and tail. Broad, ill defined stripes from midline stripe. Mane ends between front leg shoulder blades, just before wings. (front extended membrane skin is missing...)

19. Wing- Top view (Added front membrane, skin attaches about where front of leg shoulderblade is- fully feathered)

20. Wing- Bottom view (Added front membrane, skin attaches about where front of leg shoulderblade is- fully feathered)

Hawke is not only copyright to me, it IS me. Steal and face the wrath of the Ice Pick B****!
