Awesome yet horribly creepy  :lol:  Nice idea with the huge snake and the insane hair!

That's pretty cool. 

Maybe it would give Playmobil some ideas to make a Greek theme (now that they no longer have Romans or Egyptians so there would be nothing to go with it and it would not sell well because of this and they would wonder why it wasn't selling like it really should and then have them go on again about how they are not going to make any more historical themes - which would be then be history repeating itself - because they do not realise they are, in fact, causing this to repeat in such a way ...).

Anyway, great figure!

Wow not what I was expecting but, it looks great and works really well with the tail and the texture of the paint to make it look scaly, looking at it makes me wonder wheter it would actually be possible to mould some plasticine or clay snakes to go in/attach to the hair for that extra bit of realism.

Gotta agree a Greek theme would be pretty cool and would certainly give some scope for making some unusual figure sif you chose to concentrate some what on the Mythology side

thanks for sharing this daring custom, Luis!
since the 'hair' is quite soft, I wonder if it'll be possible to transplant PM snakes onto each of those spikes (cut-off leaving holes to push in and tightly hold the tail of each snake, hopefully to still declare that no PM snake was hurt in making Medusa ;))

The anaconda is not a snake, master cheng?
(that will effectively keep me for even considering TRYING to duplicate this amazing  :love: custom)
