This is the sort of thing I've been doing for the last few months. Not actually what I've been doing in class, mind you, but I've been doing physical studies like this on my own time.
So, obviously, this isn't finished. It's something I did in my sketchbook recently that began as an attempt at female anatomy, but then I decided to stylize it a bit. So this is what I ended up with. It isn't really obvious, but I was shooting to make her hands have a metalic texture, as gorgons were originally supposed to have "brazen" claws. So I decided I actually wanted them to be like brass. It didn't come across too well, and I'm not entirely happy with the snake hair, but...BOOBIES!
I hope you all like it. I'll be trying to make more polished products to post in the future, but for now, all I'm willing to do are half done sketches like these.
Ta for now.

And it's very nice. The shadowing, with the exception of the head of course, is very believable. However, unless you are going for a VERY stocky figure, the legs are not very proportional, as the calves should only be coming from the bottom of the cloth. Also, if the character is not stocky, this is also kind of an awkward standing position for her to be in. But otherwise, everything is very nice.
BOOBIES!
The end.

FIERCE.
I am particularly impressed with the muscle tone of the body, very Greek (you know, all Greek statues are ripped).
The shadowing around the head and upper body confuse me. What exactly is it supposed to be? Simply for the sake of contrast?
Art school's done ya well boy. Very well.

"Skill is only a matter of effort, the more you try the better you become."
Hahaha. Anyway, the stomach and muscles of this are particularly what amaze me. It's brilliant and beautiful. I, too, was reminded of something Greek. Along the goddess lines.
Personally I love the hair. Because at the base and roots it looks like really thick curls/dreads. But then as it heads towards the tips there are snake heads. I think it's an improvement on the whole snake-haired...thing.
*clutches own B-cups protectively* Oh how I don't envy her back problems. *giggle*

If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.
Stocky? Well, not really, but not lanky either. She was supposed to be...I dunno, fit? Sporty, I guess?
I may try and fix it up some time later, but not now.

Tomorrow is new. It will always be.
And the truth is, while the muscles are very exaggurated, they're not accurate. Normal people don't have muscles like that and still be as thin as this lady is. And I know what you mean. GO KOUROS! But you know what? It turns out that most classical period Greek sculptures were bronze, not marble.
And yes, the shadows are just there to make the head stand out more. I've been doing that a lot recently.
And thank you.

Well, thank you very much, but there are actually quite a few anatomical errors in this that I hope to fix sometime soon. I'm glad you like it, though. I really appreciate it.
And yeah, the boobs are a bit big...I was hoping to make them look more like pectoral muscles, but so long to that idea. And hey, boob size doesn't matter. For the most part, guys like any size of boob so long as its on a woman; to care how big they are is just greedy.

I do see what you mean by pectoral muscles though, I mean it doesn't look like big globs of fatty flesh attached to her chest, that's for sure. And haha, boys will be boys. That, and us women can be quite greedy with our preferences in males, too. I suppose it evens out in the end.
