Beautiful, imaginative, seamless ... just how many spare Medusa and Creature kits did you buy for all this 'bashing?

Great job blending the front & back.
Thresher shark tail could maybe work - if angled artistically?
Or even the sort of "tail" that various moray eels have (with the "fins" top/bottom).

Re: Kitbash:Medusa Shark Hunter,update 2023-09-29
Thanks Ian!
Yes, exactly, I was thinking thresher shark tail.
But the bash looks pretty cool as is, so I will most likely just finish blending and nodule work, and then paint as is.

Joe, before I forget: I will shortly be trimming down my collection, and my geometric harryhausen Medusa is one of the kits that is going to go. Are you interested? After all, you never can have too many of those if you know what I mean ...

Oooooh! VERY good call. Turned a "plain Jane" snake body into something that catches the eye!

Gorgeous !!!

- Glad you retained the original "Sandy Collora" head on this one - fits pretty much ANY "monster" sculpt you would want to kitbash (well - when it comes to someone with YOUR "across the board" talent anyways! )
