Since tomorrow I will have the whole day for myself, I decided to warm up so I will finally start with that requests I have to get done.

So, I had been thinking on changing my gryphon's design. And this was the small brainstorm I had an hour ago.
As you recall, Elarin (Gryph) is a Great Grey Owl/Badger. But for some reason I felt that she needed some changes...and I like Lesser Horned Owls (Magellanic Owl), so I decided to play along with the concept of making a big mix of owl and badger.

(I also like Rusty-barred Owls, or generally all the Strix genus. But I had been thinking on adding eartufts to Elarin since forever)

As you can see, It started to grow much less Great Grey-like into a Lesser Horned Gryph with some slight details. And yeah, it doesn't have the "mane" in the last two since I'm also thinking of not using the "mane" on the gryphon.
It also included changes in the colors...I really got tired of grey!

So...which one is your favorite of all five? Do you have any suggestions of what should I try or anything? :S
