Change. That’s what I like to see as 2019 begins. For me, it starts now. I was feeling the ‘Miami Vice’ color scheme lately (as evidence with my female Hippogriff O/FC Calienta I did last week), so I thought I give an alternate scheme to my other Hippogriff O/FC Valour Flame. I showed him off with it in another piece, so I thought I do it again, but as part of my ‘Valourverse’ project.

I did say I adored this dork when I did him back last May with a different color scheme, but I love him more like this. He’s a lovable dork who is seen as a stalwart among his friends, even Sunfyre, so you can’t go wrong with Val in any circumstance. It may be a base work, but its a base work I’m proud of and like to see start off my 2019 on the right foot.
