I'd like to post my wips and progress for any general crit or just for interest. The brief was for an "Earth Giant" ala the greek Titans or God of War etc. Please fire away if you see things that might help. Cheers!!
Some thumbs. Probably about an hour worth of work to this stage.

I could have picked pretty much any, but I found out I was naturally wanting to detail up the top left, so I decided to go with it. Starting to detail up a value sketch. Haven't really settled or thought about the creature design too much at this stage. Between 2 and 3 hours in at this point.

As a break I decided to quickly mess around with a rough colour overlay. Need to do a few more iterations before I decide on a scheme. This has also highlighted to me that I need to start refining the whole comp and value scheme and designing the giant more as it still needs a lot of work! 3.5 hours work.

Any comments requested and appreciated !! :)
