Description
Instagram | Facebook | Shop(Music: Arcana - Serpents Dance)
In Greek mythology, a Drakaina is a female serpent or dragon, sometimes with humanlike features. Examples of the Drakaina included Echidna, Lamia, Campe, and Delphyne. You can also find very similar serpent-like creatures in mythology of other nations: Naga (Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism) and Vuzhalka (Slavic) 🐍
This work was originally supposed to be dedicated to Echidna, but then I had a desire to make two characters.

I definitely remember Echidna from the 90s "Hercules" series and I saw Campe in the "Class of the Titans" cartoon!
From the thumbnails I thought they were a variation of the Sirens. Still rather seductive of sorts.

Those were surely the base of the design of Mia from monster musume
