Hey Wardy,
Nice mood and colors, really! There's a nice sense of atmosphere here. Looks like a sandy scotland.
As for the story part, the "floating boulder" concept, it's not very clear. There's only the one on the right, but it's very big, partly hidden, (so you don't see that it is floating without anything else holding it), it doesn't really have any shadows, there is no other boulders smaller or farther in the image to help the viewer understand that this very big rock floats... At least that's how I read the image when first looking at it. To be honest, if I hadn't read the brief, I'm not sure I would have understood the "flying boulder" concept.
So yeah maybe adding more floating rocks, clearing the foreground rock that overlaps the boulder on the top right of the image, making the principal boulder a little more visible and clearly detached from anythung else could help.
That's my 2 cents. It's a completely personal opinion right after looking at the image.
On a second read, are the little blacks rocks on the bottom left supposed to float?
They don't read well at all imho.
Keep on posting the wip, it's a nice moody image and I would love to see the end result. :)
