I agree it's a bit big, massive, but it's not really bad.

I like it, and why would being made by Noerice be a bad thing?

For me and EP, it just is. Deal with it. ;)

(Neo has a particular style. It works well for some units, but badly for others. I think it works well for the gryphon; EP doesn't.)

No, it does look at least half decent right now; Neo's modifications made it better than ITS original. That wouldn't be a bad gryphon if it wasn't based on the old gryphon.

In other words: The wing is still really ugly.

Then say that for god's sake; IF you want to say graphics look bad, at least say -why- so that I know what I aught to change to make it look better; sheesh, is it so hard?

I think the wings are too multi-colored, and just a little bit too huge. Other than that, it looks good.

Really good that is.

It's hilarious reading your guys' posts btw.

I think the new gryphon should have its head down and forward when flying, but IMO it's an improvement on the old ones.

Personally, I like the big wings.

The size of the wings is fine, but they original wings' multi-colored-ness, no-actual-feathers-ness, and general suckiness makes them a bad idea to use as a base for a new gryphon...

Something like what jetryl's new gryphons have would be good for the feathers, etc.
