These are so pretty. I love how much the humans are echoed in the snakes, or maybe it's more the other way around.

Hey, thanks! The snakes are all existing species (king cobra, red tailed boa, blue malaysian coral snake, and vine snake), so it's prolly more the humans echoing the snakes.

I love the way you incorporated each snake's design and markings into the human forms.

Ssssstunning.
My favs are top right and lower left.
Are the snakes based on actual species/colour morphs? Or fantastic designs inspired from the human characters?

Thanks! The snakes are all actual species, the people themselves were kind of an afterthought haha. Upper left is a King Cobra, to the right a Red-tailed Boa. Bottom left is a Blue Malaysian Coral Snake, and the one beside that is a Green Vine snake XD
