Description
Yet another contest! This time it's for and the theme is fantasy and reptiles... Fantasy? Reptiles? that makes it perfect for a gorgon (like Medusa, though it's not quite her).Credit: *mizzd-stock for the reference and ~Ryan2006 for brushes.

Wonderful! I love how evil she looks, and yet her eyes caress her favorite little creature. Great choice of color as well!

This is a very cool take on the "Gorgon" character. Sweet, yet a bit disturbing.
Beautifully done.

i love how you dont seem to need complex backgrounds for your work. this piece, especially.

bull. i've seen your backgrounds. the dotted quality gives them away as rough paintings, but the colors are dead on.

Just love it but i wish there could be like a bigger version of it like a full body shot of her full self since gorgons were half serpent half human (nagas) but hey its still awesome.

Nagas? I haven't thought about them that way, but it seems logical. I also wanted to give her scaly skin but I suck at textures.
Thanks for the comment. ^^

Wow. I really love it. I really do. Medusa was always my favorite in Greek legends. Mainly becuase I am (and always have been) a snake lover, and I wished my hair were snakes instead. Keeps creeps away from you, thats for sure.
But really it looks absolutley beautiful. Keep up the good work.

Oh, yeah I agree. I have very fine, thick, curly hair. So it's horrible to brush. Thats why my mom straghtens it sometimes. Infact, one of my friends past time a year ago, was trying to uncurl my curls in school. She sat behind me, and we had free time she tried to uncurl my hair. It's quite funny, she got so frustrated.
But yeah, if I could choose, I would probably rather have snakes for hair.

Muy bien elaborado y con una combinaciΓ³n de colores perfecta. TambiΓ©n destaca la expresiΓ³n de la gorgona. Sin embargo hay un pequeΓ±o desequilibrio de mandΓbulas por parte de las serpientes, lo que las hace "mofletudas", pero aparte de eso es una pieza muy buena

La verdad es que me daba que habΓa algo mal con las serpientes, pero no habΓa pensado en lo de mofletudas y ahora que lo mencionas creo que es eso.
Muchas gracias por el comentario. ^^

wow that's great!
Everything about this picture seems very smooth and a little evil ^^... which is a bit like a snake..
I love it

Absolutely beautiful! I'm almost so jealous to see how people can paint or draw, I've never been very good at it myself. Even digital paintings leave me in awe. I would have liked to see a tad bit more highlights/detail oh the hair, but the snakes for example are wonderful!

Thanks ^^
And I also think that the hair is a bit dull. Next time I'll work that a bit more.

It's difficult to find new and different ways of expressing the pleasure I get from looking at and admiring other peoples work, but I like this, well done!

You did an outstanding job on this. The snakes seem so life-like that you can almost touch them. Good luck in the contest!
