Gryphions~ Fourth of July Event thread!

[Wildfilly94]

Gotta love the bacon, blueberries, and Howard Shore

[Kadana Sorano]

lol I dunno who any of those last choices are

[Wildfilly94]

I know Howard (obviously xD) And Danny Elfman. Howard did sonera twilight movie soundtrack songs, and Danny was...... something... Harry potter? or.. idk. D:

[Kadana Sorano]

lol I see.. I only ever watched the first of either of those. 

[Wildfilly94]

Ohh. Haha. xD

[Kadana Sorano]

I prolly wouldn't have known even if I;d seen them all.  Honestly, I hardly ever read credits for stuff like that.  And heck, half the time I can;t remember the names of songs I like, let alone who sings them.  I have to google them by the lyrics rofl

[Gryphions]

John Williams is my favorite composer. He did anything spielberg did, so ET, Jurassic Park, Jaws, etc. Plus StarWars, Harry Potter, and more. He's the best!

Howard Shore did Lord of the Rings.

John Powell did Happy Feet and How to Train Your Dragon, etc.

Danny Elfman does all of Tim Burtin's movies, so Nightmare Before Christmas, Edward Scissorhands, etc.

Michael Giacchino did the score for Up and StarTrek!

[Kadana Sorano]

watched ET, but when I was very little, I don;t remember any of the music there.  Star wars and star trek now, that's another story!

[Wildfilly94]

Lol. i knew it was hp, twilight or lotr. xD and Ahh! I knew Danny was familiar

[Gryphions]

When I say Star Trek, I mean the new movie.
I'm a big fan of film scores.
Oh, BTW, I think Danny Elfman did one of the Batman movie scores. Most recent scores are done by Hanz Zimmer, though.

XD I guess if I do this again I'll need to make a new code system. But that's ok!

[Kadana Sorano]

wait.. star trek has a "new" movie?  not star wars?  I'm currently watching all the star treks (beginning with TNG) with my son, yep, turned my boy into a trekkie lol  so a new movie sounds awesome!

And the boy looks amazing, congrats sis!

[Gryphions]

It came out in 2009. I personally think it's wonderful. But I haven't seen much of the older star treks. Actually I've seen like five episodes of the first series.

[Kadana Sorano]

ahh  netflix possibly has it then, we'll get there eventually lol were in like season 4 of TNG right now.

I didn't like the original, it "felt" wrong.  but possibly because I'd already seen some of TNG before seeing any of the originals.  It felt too much like watching "old fogey" shows in black and white, which I can't stand! 

[Neocridders]

Oh, it used to be on netflix instant but not anymore which is a shame since I watched it all the time. The music is INCREDIBLE. That french horn... oh my gosh. And I am not a fan of lots of trumpet, but the trumpets in that score are fantastic!!

XD But that's just me spazzing about music

[hiyoko]

The Gryphion looks great, congrats Rosewood!^^

[Kadana Sorano]

lol it's OK, I understand.  My personal favorite is bag pipe music.  Something that most people I know seem to hate.  Ahh well..

And dang, if it isn't on instant any more, I may have to find it elsewhere when the time comes.  I still have 3 dvd's out so can't get any more, and I lost hose 3..  It's been almost a year since they were "lost" now, and I still can;t find them.  Seriously starting to consider they were walked off with heh

[Neocridders]

I love bagpipes:)

[YourLoveOnly]

Fun game Neo! And such a pretty result too =D
I did that for one of my adoptables once, tons of fun ^^

[Sunchaser]

Ill be back later today to finish the customs and do some more events. The Military one closes today, and since i didn't get a lot of entries i dont think ill finish coloring the gryphions that i was going to.

[Gryphions]

Neocridders here!
Finally got that male in Rosewood's account.


I colored up this gryphion and was wondering if anyone likes her?
To get her you must come up with her personality. Maybe a bit of roleplaying?
Who is she?
Contest ends at midnight secundi time!

[SkySong]

I do like her, but I'm not sure I can get her to tell me who she is.

[Rosewood]

Oh wow! What a nice surprise to wake up to! Thank you Neo! *hugs boy*

[Neocridders]

I do like her, but I'm not sure I can get her to tell me who she is.

You could role play as her, give us a taste of who she is. Or just write a personality blurb

[Kadana Sorano]

I would give her a loving home with plenty of room to stretch her wings, she could nest/roost with my other Gryphs, or hang out in the pastures with my various equine friends.  She'd have the freedom to roam around, hunt and play to her hearts content.  I've brought along my friend Aftershock to meet the pretty Gryph lady.

---------------------------------------------

I was actually waiting to enter this one until I saw all of the Gryphs, because I thought I had to choose which branch I entered to win.  But I re-read and see I was mistaken lol so, my apologies for that!

[Neocridders]

This is my image for the branches of the military raffle. I hope it's not too late!

[SkySong]

Neo, that is a freaking awesome picture. O.O

[Neocridders]

I don't mean to take credit. I found it on google images. I just really liked it.
I hope it was ok that I took an image from google.

[SGA]

Well Neo, if we were meant to make the images ourselves, then I am in the same boat with you lol I took mine from facebook.

[SkySong]

I figured - still very cool, though!

[Sunchaser]

No worries you didnt need to save your images, nor enter the specific branch. If people wish i can leave that open for a few more days see who enters and perhaps what i might do is do a list of those who entered and if there are 6, maybe toss semi customs for the branches that i didnt do that must be related to that branch? Sound okay?

[Sunchaser]

Kadana you won the female gryphion horse mimic if you have a name in mind please let me know and ill upload her to your account ^_^


Im going to work on the inspiration customs and then see what all i want to do with this thread.

[Kadana Sorano]

no name right now sorry, too exhausted to think of one.  You can upload though, and I an name later?

[Sunchaser]

I can do that Kadana no problem.

Just a note guys, Things have been crappy here the last few days hence why i have been unable to do much of anything. My friend is moving at the end of the week and on top of that dealing with some other things. I love you all and im not dissapearing, im just letting you know whats going on why things are going so slow. Agian im so sorry this is not how i wanted to start being a colorist of the Gryphions i hope you will all hang in with me.

[Sunchaser]

Here is what i have to do

Brown horse girl- Kadana- Needs to be Uploaded

Powered Blue Tang-Hiyoko-Needs to be uploaded

YLO Kingfisher needs to be uploaded
