final rank: 28 out of 129 entries

When someone says forest I automatically think snakes, bugs, & twigs. Just like some of the other entries the eyes are supposed 2 represent Mother Earth & her creations; harmless as a mouse-fierce as a snake.

After a LOOONG while got the basic outline for it.

Entry guide: step 7 of 9

After lots of cloning for the skin, filtering for the mouth, and warping for the teeth (used the girls nail 2 make the tooth) with added textures. also added some "scales" 2 the body

Entry guide: step 8 of 9

Entry guide: step 9 of 9

Finally used a technique I learned a good while ago 2 bring "light" into the picture & make it (in my opinion) seem natural. Doesnt look like much but I spent a good minute of this design and would like 2 have yalls input on how 2 improve it or whatever. Theres always something u can add 2 make it look better. Hard part is just figureing it out.

final result
