I would just say mabe a bit more highligt on the snakes behind her head mabe? Just to help seperate them a bit from each other. Some rock like texture on The Queen's victums in the back too. To me they look a bit like myst or fog atm. But You did say that it's a wip. So far looking neat. Her toes look a bit lost tho.

i agree with sam. more highlights! maybe have some water beading off of the snake's skin too. that would look neat. i can't wait to see the finished product!

Yeah some stronger highlights on the snakes and maybe a different color for Medusa so she doesn't blend-in with the background as much.

I love the gold in this! I'd try to make the snakes look a teeny bit more sinister, but you're doing great ^^

Hmm, adding the wings would be a little much. But yeah, the victims look more like ghosts than statues, though it could just be the lighting. And she does almost blend in with the background, though that could be useful for when she stalks her victims... man, I ramble.

Gorgeous!! No wonder you have no time for yourself, slave to your artwork!
I really like the blue color theme, pose and awesome snake hair. Looks eerie and Gothic, so you know I love it! :D
