Medusa King

Most have heard the legends of Medusa, a winged human female with living venomous snakes in place of hair. Those who gazed upon her face would turn to stone, But what most don't know is that medusa wasn't a person, it was a race.
Hey what is up guys/gals, hope you are all staying safe and healthy. Here is a traditional drawing I've been working on for a small contest hosted by reference heaven. The Idea was a king who ruled over the the medusa race. I hope you guys enjoy it, let me know your thoughts on it and as always stay creative you'll.
