All contest entries will be judged and feedback will be given. There is possibility that there is more then 1 winner.
The challenge for this month is a special one , as some of you have noticed I haven't been that active recently.
This is because I have joined a crypto community which consumed a lot of my time.
One of the projects we are working on is called "Hydra" But this contest isn't about crypto but about making amazing art. .

So in honor if this I want this contest to be about a Hydra (the mythological beast)
So the challenge this time is to make an amazing fantasy art piece of a **Hydra**.
For more information on Hydra's you can look here: https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydra_(mythology) (or google it)
*** There is only one 'must', the hydra must bear the Hydra symbol that you can find in the attached document.***
*** The logo does not need to be literally the same... please make it fit your art style!*** Integrate it smartly!
*** The piece must also be original / unique (fotoshops don't count) ***

Apart from that you have the entire canvas for your imagination.

The winner of this contest will not be judged by, but instead will be judged by the community its for.

There are 30 days to complete the challenge
The contest is sealed, so please submit work in progress so that I can think along with the creation process (and it's fun)

I hope you'll enjoy the contest.

    Hi, Mr Brans. I wonder if the drawing should only have Hydro as the sole and main character on the composition, or can we use Hercules, or some other mythological data? Thanks for the info.
