Well, I see Andreas and Veronica have shown up my ugly attempt at tiny
snakes.  Both snakes are brilliant, but I don't think they look
_EVIL_ enough, so I'mma gonna try again:

"Hmmm....  I think I need a haircut."
or
"Would you guys SHUT UP.  I'm trying to get some sleep."


The main face is SEVERELY in need of a rediddle.  I can't think what the
Medusa looks like, but she certainly don't look like that.   (:

Haha! Well, you are right about our cute snakes. Here's my
try at Ms. Medusa :

         ._._..    _._._      .._._.

        ^     \_ \_|_^ |_/_ /       ^
          __...\ _ |  _ /_ ....__
    .._..' .____  _     _  ____. '.._..
   /o'_`o\/     |(`)  (') \     \/o'_`o\
   (/` '\)      |   /     a)     (/` '\)
   `\.|./'      (   '     "      `\.|./'
      !          \ .--.  /          !
      ^           \    .'           ^
                   `--' |     AsH (a:f)
            _ __.-'      `--._

Too cute again - I guess. More evil :

Well, NOBODY really knows what she looked like because anybody who could
have told is, well, you know....

But I suspect she would have had rather an innocuous face:
