Latest Update: Work In Progress: Cerberus Body Test

Hey everyone,

What an amazing topic for this challenge!

I’ve done a lot of thinking these last few days, and have missed the boat on a few ideas that have been chosen already, but I’m honing in on creating a giant steampunk Cerberus, the three-headed hellhound and Guardian of Hades, in confrontation with Hercules, as part of the hero’s twelve tasks. Some concept sketches to follow - I spent a few hours tonight just getting ideas down.

Hope everyone’s well and good luck to you all - There is some stunning work around already!

Great start, that’s one mean steampunk powered pooch, the composition seems a bit classic though, maybe you could play some more with it, make it a bit more dynamic, nice colors as well, good luck to you and Hercules

i think that this composition will not explore the vision of this marvelous character.

Thanks again guys - the composition will change a fair bit, this was just an exercise in palette and scale (and to pin my colours to Cerberus - I lost a few ideas to quick-fingered artists! :wink:

Cheers,

Phil
