Description
it's took me ages(more than 100hrs), started in spring '12 and finished few days ago (fall '13)
format A3, merged from four scans, slightly edited contrast and some highlight, cause scans look so pale!
mostly used my hands, mech. pencils HB & 2B and tons of smudging tools..
it's far from perfect, but I'm satisfied.. horever one thing drives me crazy and will probably chase me in my nightmares till I die.. I put her mouth pretty low and it's look so odd.. atleast for me
oh yes.. the ref. link >>> d01i.img-up.net/octo_origf75c.…

Oh wow!! With that tentacular hair, it would've been SO cool to have seen her with webbed fingers, too!!

holy shit this amazing although i totally understand how you feel about the mouth being too low (i personally can't see it), i see that a lot in my work and when i do notice it's too late brilliant work though

great job...don't fret on the mouth its the journey that counts. Theres an old saying written by the travel writer Paul Theroux {yes he is Louis Theroux father]
" All great journeys always look better in retrospect"
Well done very unusual which shows more than just technique..imagination.

i can not find any fault in this, though i know how you feel about one thing driving you batty. just kinda stretching for an explanation here, but perhaps the mouth seems low to you becuz her head seems tall/long due to the tentacles on top of her head.
would have loved to see some creatures caught in those tentacles! no criticism there, just my imagination.
as a greek myth and greek trageedy enthusiast, this is one of the best portrayals of a Medusa- i've ever seen, regardless of medium, easily!

It's an amazing work! I'm not seeing any trouble with the mouth, I think you should not worry it's already awesome!

Nicky Minaj and her butt is far from perfection. Your drawing is as close to perfection as possible, like 99,99% perfect!

Amazing! Come on, don't say it's far from perfect I prefer the tonal range you gave it, it's more dramatic. About the mouth, if we don't see the ref. no one could say it's a little low, it's not looking akward or strange, no way.
I see many 'perfect' ultrarealistic drawings but I must say that as an artist we have to put something ours to achieve a more interesting result, and I think you've done it.
