April Challenge - MKess007 - Newbie

This month I am at least gonna attempt to do the challenge. Recently I 've started my baseball season and have had practices or games every night since then. So I'm probably gonna finish it just in time if at all.

Well, anyways, my idea is less the common vision of Hell and more the Greek way. I project will be a river dragon that guards the river of the underworld. I came up with the character myself so don't waste your time searching through your old Greek mythology books:p .

Well here is my scetch, I realize I am not the best artist:

Ok, I haven't had that much time but I did some work on the eyes. I attempted the nose several times but haven't made one that I like yet so its the same.

anita: I believe the gizurd is the little sack thing on the neck, not sure though

Zocky: you don't have to do the same one lol. Actually I recommend you don't its mine! :p

Here's the update:

Well, the last 2 weeks have been like Hell to me(a little pun intended). I've had a severe sinus infection and popped a couple of blood vessels in my eyes. Right now I'm nearly back to perfect health, but it seems I missed out on the competition considering tomorrow is May 1st. I will most likely try and complete this model in the summer when I will have more time and hopefully be healthy.
