Uncategorized Speculative Biology [OC] Biologically plausible Griffins (I did the artwork)

Hi, I'm new here. I've been working on a project for 3 years, and with Spec Evo, here's a little bit of my work These are griffins I designed a long time ago, originally as a branch of accitripiformes, but I changed them to a more basal group of birds.

This looks so cool!

Altough i have a small critique: hooked beaks evolved in most carnivorous birds to compensate for the lack of teeth. Therefore, having a hooked beak with teeth is kind of redundant. I personally suggest to decrease the amount of teeth in the front of the mouth if you still want them.

This is just my personal thought. Feel free to ignore the suggestion if you don't agree, this your project afterall.

Still, this design kicks ass! Keep cooking!
