Perseus vs. the Kraken

Description

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!
