I know. I just like swirls and I was trying to find them.

The recruit/Adam's mask has the shape of a beak and the grunt mask has two fangs like a snake. So they kind of are inspired by animals... But I get it. I wasted enough time trying to compare the Grimm masks to Grimm species. (spoilers: none match)
