Waking up and having Sijun again is almost like getting a surprise gift !
Nice- I think its worth continuing with, for sure!
I would start adding some scaliness to the snakes, and some highlights to give them more form. I'd probably also take some time to work the edges near the leading edge of her profile. In particular, the area around the chin.
Is it just me, or is there something going on with her breasts? They look smushed or something.
Its a nice start- are you going to go color with it, or stay in pencils? |

Looking at the finer details it looks like individual strands of hair make up a spiraling criss-cross pattern to form the snakes, and lend it a bit of a scaliness, I think thats fine, and maybe should be make a little more obvious in other parts.
It's awesome, quite alive, or perhaps undead, dunno what the story with Medusa really was.
The boob though, yeh, somethin' wrong with the boob... |

The neck/shoulder area is very very good.
I'd work on adding more detail to the hair line and cleaning up some of the snakes, make em more 3d. ear might be a tad small... |
