Medusa 🐍 | Step-by-Step Illustrataion 🎨

in #slothicorn β€’ 7 years ago

Hi Steemians! I'm back again with a new Step-by-Step Illustrationn blog

So today, I'm ging to show you how I draw Medusa and I will be showing you how I did it.

Who is Medusa?

Medusa was a monster, one of the Gorgon sisters and daughter of Phorkys and Keto, the children of Gaea (Earth) and Oceanus (Ocean). She had the face of an ugly woman with snakes instead of hair; anyone who looked into her eyes was immediately turned to stone. Her sisters were Sthenno and Euryale, but Medusa was the only mortal of the three. She was originally a golden-haired, fair maiden, who, as a priestess of Athena, was devoted to a life of celibacy; however, after being wooed by Poseidon and falling for him, she forgot her vows and married him. For this offence, she was punished by the goddess in a most terrible manner. Each wavy lock of the beautiful hair that had charmed her husband was changed into a venomous snake; her once gentle, love-inspiring eyes turned into blood-shot, furious orbs, which excited fear and disgust in the mind of the onlooker; whilst her former roseate hue and milk-white skin assumed a loathsome greenish tinge.

Here's the finished product. It took me 4hrs to finish this one (Since I'm at home and my mother constantly ask me to go out and do somethin hahahaha)

Here, I will be showing you my Step-by-Step Illustration:











Here, like my last post, I used Lightroom CC to adjust the color hue of Green and the Clarity and other light settings





So this is how it looked after the edit:


And the final product!

Very nice :D I love medusa ! She's such an iconic monster :D :D

Omg, i love your art! it's a wonderful step by step, i like the final edition in lightroom.

I want to suggest two things <3 There is a small error in the title in the part of "Ilustrataion", did you mean "Illustration" i guess? :( and to avoid problems with the cheetah robot, I recommend to put the format in this way (There was a gap between the signs)
