What’s the legend/myth?

Image is a good start but you HAVE to get away from using the lined paper.

As you can see, there’s a major change in the concept. I will reupload a concept picture until tomorrow.
The hands are the those that will be used, but right now they’re put to get the idea… not final…

The story is about the Hecatonchires…

extract from the Wikipedia:

The Hecatonchires, or Hekatonkheires Greek: Ἑκατόγχειρες([Hekatonkheires]), were three gargantuan figures of an archaic stage of Greek mythology. According to Hesiod they were children of Gaia and Uranus, simply the issue of Earth and Sky, or of Earth and Sea thus part of the very beginning of things in the submerged prehistory of Greek myth, though they played no part in cult. They were known as Briareus the Vigorous, also called Aigaion (Latinized as Aegaeon) the “sea goat”, Cottus the Striker or the Furious, and Gyges (or Gyes) the Big-Limbed. Their name derives from the Greek ἑκατόν (hekaton; “hundred”) and χείρ (kheir; “hand”), “each of them having a hundred hands and fifty heads”. They were giants of incredible strength and ferocity, even superior to that of the Titans, whom they helped overthrow, and the Cyclopes. In Latin poetry, the Hecatonchires were known as the Centimani, which simply translates “Hundred-Handed Ones.”
