"Creatures" - The Basilisk of the Chamber of Secrets

Guarding the Chamber of Secrets beneath Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is the Basilisk. A serpent of death and loyal to the will of Voldemort, this giant creature slithers along the sewers waiting for his next unlucky victim.

I chose to build the basilisk from the Harry Potter movie "The Chamber of Secrets." I knew this would be a challenge, as I had only found out about this contest a day before the due date, but I poured every available hour into this build that I could and this is the result. The mouth completely opens and closes, and the body is very maneuverable and solid. I built this to be playable, and tried to keep the look of the beast as realistic as possible.
