I was flipping through the channels a few weeks ago and came across one of my favorite childhood memories. The movie "Clash of the Titans". Some of you kids may not have seen this movie so hears a link: [link]
The movie had no CGI (!) but featured epic battles with monsters of all kind thanks to the master of stop motion animation Ray Harryhausen. I wanted to do a scene from the movie/greek myth where Perseus displays the head of Medussa to turn the sea monster to stone, saving Andromeda. This was my first personal piece in a while and I had a great time working on it. Go see "Clash of the Titans"...it may be kinda cheesy compared to modern cinema but it was way epic back in the day!

With all due respect to Harryhausen, (a master of his craft), and the movie, (the effects were groundbreaking back then,) I have to say that I find this picture much more epic than the actual scene in the movie...:) Great still interpretation of the scene!
