Like the thor fortress gaurd idea; an army wouldnt be an army without tactical units. Cant wait to see images. The only thing i can think of for foot prints would be a bump map. Good luck with the foot prints and keep up the good work.

love the story and your concepts. I also would like to see a 2D of your final idea, but my imagination has had its way with it already I must warn.

pBarrelas: Thanks, I am planning to sketch the first giant concept now but I am a tad busy with other things.
ace4016: Glad you like them, I hope they will fill out the scene well. I think contrast wise it would be boring to ONLY have large mega battle units in the scene. It would be hard to get a good feel of the sheer size of these creatures without humans.
WazaR: Thanks, I hope I will be able to visualize it better than I described it. As for the lighting I am thinking dark clowdy skies, building up the momentum of war and streaks of sun fighting through the clouds symbolizing hope. Illuminating the statue of Thor and inspiring the human armies in battle. I want to make it a little baroque like with my use of lights. If you know what I mean?
dark-elf2: 
I hope I can show some asap.

Well all I’m goign to say is" I’m honest I have not readed the whole thread just pieces and bites of it, the giants, the infantry and all that. But I really want to see sketches, I dont care if they look like sticky mans posing for a grand finally, I just want to see what you have in mind, cuz I cannot get the whole thing from reading. (english is my second language) and this becomes a problem. I cannot follow the thread only by chatting) With that said I really hope you try just a little harder to post a sketch of your idea, so at least I can give you a tiny bit of input and be able to help you just a tiny bit 
- Thanks for reading this
- Cheers!

Hi superlayer 
really curious your landscape, or battle ground… so, i hope to see the next step.
This concept is so “atypic” than i am sure it ll give us a grand space opera artwork.
I like to see few sketch around maps !

Hey ppl,
I am sorry I havent made any sketches yet but my hands are full at the moment.
I need to make a living so it will be a few days before I can make any updates.
thanks for visiting though.

Rune this is the Best story, IMHO, yet
I’ve always liked Asgardian (Norse) mythology (and runes)
Hence my Graff nick. “rune”
So from one rune to another :
Keep up the great story!
