Artist's Comments

I wanted to draw a really muscley, tough-looking dude, but it regressed into this...
And so there, the Ancient Greek myth of Perseus slaying the Medusa... She's supposed to turn people to stone if they look at her face... I know he uses a shiny mirror-shield, but... maybe he dropped it?

Does anyone here think I should put a mature content warning on this because it's a decapitated head???

It just doesn't seem that graphic to me, but maybe that's 'cause I drew it.

It's probably fine.

But he looks ... happy. xD; Sort of 'Ooh, snake-headed monster, yay!'

"Don't you think the symbol for 'sodium' is a little abstruse?"
"Nah."

He's supposed to be proud of himself... I think?

Greek mythology is okay, but I think Norse is more interesting.

Medusa's head just looks funny to me.

Meh, I was just fooling around with it, trying to go with the 'snakes-as-hair' thing and also trying to make it hideous...

It's the fact that it's severed which makes me wonder...
:iconqueataplai:
Wonder what?

I started being iterested in the Norse mythology when I read a book called 'The Sea of Trolls' by Nancy Farmer. Its really cool. :)

If it's graphic enough to merit being given a Mature Warning.
:iconqueataplai:
Ah.

So, yes. Good book.

Ya know what I just realized? Perseus's head is kinda small.
