z1mmnd14, I started drawing when I was about 8, and took it all through school. I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts also...

Here's my next one... this one has a more reptilian/fantasy look. I'm not too happy with the head snakes and how they're wrapped right now.

Do you guys like more human or more reptile?

Mike,

You should rent Clash of the Titans and take a look at their Medusa and how they did the writhing snakes on her head. (Whoohooo...can we say, "animated hair?" user added image

K, here's a new one. user added image This one is going back to the "beauty" side of things. I had one comment at the challenge site about giving her 2 faces, one ugly, one beauty... I think I might have a pretty cool idea for that! user added image I'll have to sketch it out. As for now, here we go:

kurt I really loved that second drawing you did. It had more "feeling" and evoked more of a mysterious nature as well. I can't think how to say what I mean!! user added image

but i love the staff on the second pic as well.

Great stuff guys

We got ears. The face is almost done, I need to work on the lips a bit more and add some wrinkels.
