This is for the International Cheetah Day Challenge.

Yeah, not exactly a cheetah. But a fantasy cousin of cheetahs. I hope they don't remain in only our fantasy and memories. It would really be a shame, and such a pity....
It depends on us and us alone.

I was still in my little cheetah period when I started this. I had lots of fun while working on the body structure and color patterns. Tried to combine different elements based on the cheetah coat, and it kinda worked. I like how it turned out, and I think it would also look good in color. So yes, I'm satisfied. So, here it is - a cheetah gryphon! I wish I had only come up with a proper name for it. I'd accept suggestions!
