Looking for sig-sized ascii

Looking for sig-sized ascii

alt.ascii-art · 6 messages · 11 Jun 1998 - 15 Jun 1998
I'm looking for signature sized fantasy (elves, faries, castles,
dragons, and the like). I'd also like to find some signature sized
Native American ascii.

Thanks in advance,
Deborah

Here's a bunch of gryphons, five lines and less, with a sample sig,
and a 4 line pegasus:

...which is exactly what I intended.  I know they're less clear than a
much larger version would be, but that is what happens with smaller
ascii pictures.  With smaller pictures, fewer details can be added.
To clarify, I have added descriptions and pointed out which parts of
the body I am trying to depict.

gryphon sitting, wings open, tail and upper body upright, front legs
off the ground

wing         
 \         
  `->(\   
     (((7<---head and beak 
   , `"()/<------foreleg and paw
   ^`-(), 
   |   ^--hind leg, comma is paw
   `--tufted tail

gryphon seated, wings furled, upper body and tail on ground, kinda
like a winged sphinx

wing, furled
  |   _
  `->/((7<--beak and head
   ._(),)_
   ^-.^--hindquarters
      `-tail 

gryphon rampant

right wing
  `->(\ /)<-left wing
     (((7)<-head and beak partially obscuring left wing
   , `"()_<-foreleg
 .->`-()_ <-one hindleg
 |    \, `
tail   ^--other hindleg

Just for refrence what did you think they were?

Donovan, I think your pyramid could easily be changed into a Teepee.
