Battle With the Giant


This is a sketch of a drawing I have been pondering for a while. A few weeks ago I wrote a small excerpt about a battle between Elias and a giant from the northern mountains. It was short but still pretty clean and clear. It could definitely use some embelishing and elaborating but it was simply a reminder of a scene I want to have in my book. That lead to other questions like, did the giant survive? Does he then become a nemisis for Elias? Or is he simply killed? Why are they fighting? Does he have anything valuable Elias finds after he kills him? Also I wasnted to convey the simple awesomeness of Elias. He is 1/3 the size of this brute but with his speed and Caligas strength he makes short work of the giant. Elias is so stinking hardcore! Oh well, expect a more polished drawing posted soon.
