Description So I finally came around to doing a page on what I would think a male Griffin would look like. I decided to a picture of both genders just so it's easy to see the differences.  I also decided to show off a few bust shots for some Griffin characters. First to talk about the differences. Males have more head feathers than females. The front of their head comes to a point and of course eye shape is different. Then there is a size difference, with males being slightly larger than females and males also having thicker necks.

The bust shots is mostly to show variation of the Griffin's face. First there is Garion from the anime. Not much to say about her since we all know her at this point. The next one  there is Lyra, the main character of Legendz: TSL. As you can see her head is quite different. She has sharp brown eyes with no markings around them, crescents on her cheeks and a completely different head crest. She also doesn't put dreads in her hair. Third is Enzo, a Griffin character I hadn't introduced yet, but I'll just say he is the biological father of Lyra for now. I'll probably do a separate concept of him in the future. So why does Lyra not have any kind of marking around her eyes? Well, I'm using the eye marks as a sign of being full grown and at the start of TSl, Lyra... isn't really a full grown Griffin yet even though she is considered a young adult. Well there you have it, Male and female Griffins.

Oooooh, epic stuff!! This is a very good reference chart!! You can definitely notice the differences between the genders and ages. I like the male's more defined neck and chest area, almost like a lion's mane. The tip is very cool like the more modern concepts of griffins. The crest gives a nice Native American chief feel and the eyes are very cool too.

Lyra's so beautiful! She actually looks really good without the eye markings... but would look good with them too, just saying. XD All the different symbols are stunning! And wow, Enzo looks cool!! I see a deep story in there. These are so well done!! Thank you so much for sharing, Donohue!

Aww. Thanks Mistress. I'm glad you like it. This was the first time I posted a picture of Lyra without her helmet. I was going with a gentle yet stern look for her. She is a lot like Garion, but not as stubborn. As the first male Griffin character, Enzo will play a huge role in the world of TSL, even if his "screen time" is limited. We will be seeing more of him eventually.

Any time~ And glad you did; she's stunning!! Will be cool seeing another Griffin not as stubborn as Garion. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Just makes life a bit difficult for her friends. XD But entertaining all the same.

Good to hear! He'll be fun to read about, that's for sure!

That's true. Garion's stubborn disposition did make it hard for everyone, but like all good characters you can get an idea where she's coming from, but I don't want every Griffin to be exactly like her.
