Medusa

Work in progress

I have always been fascinated by the mythical world of Greek gods. I am particularly interested in the mystical creature of Medusa.

In my self-interpreted design of the snake woman who turns her victims into stone, I wanted to depict her as a warrior to improve my armour design skills.

To perfectly reflect Greek mythology in my design, I decided to model Greek ornaments on the complete armour.

The colour choice of the Medusa consists of green, black and a lot of gold.

I really wanted to include a crown on the head to mirror the other ornaments on the armour. The snakes are sprayed and attached to the inserted staffs. Since Medusa cannot have enough snake attachments, I decided to sew snake-like dreadlocks out of leather and attach them to the back of her head.
