Description
*2nd edit* I worked on it some more, mainly the belly scales which I sort of did twice and as I had to realise later the wrong way around...
And I am still fighting with lights and depths. Help is still very welcome!
---------------------------------------------------------
*edit* I changed the body I hope this one fits better.
Yeah just practice but it turned out better than I had thought though differently from what I had intended.
However I'd like to ask for help. It looks boring and random. I won't change the heads I drew already but do you think I shoud still add some and if so where? Same problem with the body, which is why I didn't work on it anymore. How could I change it so it adds to the feeling of the picture?
Also feel free to redline if you like.

i feal like 5 heads is a good number, i feel snakes tend to depict satan, to that end pentagrams are about right, 4 seems like an odd number, it could even curl around one of the other heads,maybe they could have 4 snake toungs each (or 5) ;D

Very good job so far. I'm not sure if it is deliberate or not, but by looking the background i suppose that you want the light sources coming from behind. In that case, the illumination of the skin looks strange as there are parts that seems to be iluminated from a light source from the right of the hidra (the left of the picture).
Other than that, the picture is looking good, keep working on it

Also, if you want to add more "feeling" to the picture, you sould try to think about the context of the scene. I think that a good place for a hydra would be a dark cavern illuminated by a torch, where it was enslaved with big chains.
Another option, a hydra temple where a priestess can feed her with sacrifices or something alike. I like small girls commanding or caring of big mithical beasts
Those are just some suggestions, i think that more than adding only spare objects you have to think about a good background for the beast, and then develop the "scene".

I like how the body looks like it really has weight and mass. Also, maybe it would help if the heads pointed in the same direction to create more tension?

I really love the color scheme and the lighting so far! I can't wait to see the final.

The pose is amazing - so full of movement, action. You can just see it writhing, waiting to strike and bit. I love your version of the hydra! I think the colors chosen are very good as well. The blue beast stands out nicely against the fiery background, but at the same time they balance one another out. Yay for complimentary colors!

Wow, I like the pose you have it in now. The way the body is looks awsome now, and you did a great job on those belly scales. ^^

Ist eine geile Idee mit den KΓΆpfen.
Helfen kann ich nicht viel ^^ Aber wΓΌrde evtl cool aussehen wenn sich der KΓΆrper um sich selbst schlΓ€ngelt.

'um sich selbst schlΓ€ngelt' okay, notiert, ich werd mal sehen was sich da machen lΓ€sst.

The heads look awsome, and you might be able to squeeze one more in to the right, but altogether I don't think they need anything to them.
Maybe a little emphasis to the curves in the body would help, though. It seems like a worm body more than a snake at the moment.
It looks really good though, and I like the idea. ^^

Thank you very much! I'll try to give it some more curves.
I also changed the background a bit and I have to say it looks better already. I'll upload it in a bit, if you wanna take another look. Feel free suggest or point out more stuff if you like.
