It kinda look like a candyfloss bear, but hell yeah that's cool !
It does look a little like candyfloss, 
I'll have to tweak that. But thanks!
i like the look on this and the colors, the soft feel to it works well for me top part almost feels like a cloud. (views rough concept it is a cloud nice work!)
Started work on the submission. Merely sketchwork, figuring how much detail to apply to the lizards and tweaking the composition. Not sure if I should edit the aspect ratio to be wider and more cinematic.
I will always say yes to wider aspect ratio lol
But in truth it could help your composition more, that burst of speed from your dude right across the picture like that
Changed the aspect ratio. Definitely helps. The composition feels less constricted now. Thanks @nesokaiyoh ^^.
Finished rough sketch. I will clean up the sketch next. Any constructive feedback on my rough sketch is appreciated. 
hmmm, this is cool, what gets to me is that this enemy is more of the focus than the hero in this image, i'd say if you can lessen his appearance and enhance the hero more might be neat maybe raise the hero and put this enemy more under the hero sliding off to the left of the shield and towards the ground. That is just me, i don't do much drawing so, take it with the grainiest of salts.
I understand what you mean. The focus might change later though when I start rendering colours and values. I plan my champion to be bright and glowing as it's powering through, while the lizards will be darker tones and possibly blurred the further they're away from the champion. I might remove detail later if necessary. Thanks for your input. ^^
Finished clean version of illustration sketch.
Okay... so overtime, I've grown to dislike the basic shield design I used so far. I've decided to redesign it before continuing the illustration.
I knew it needed changing, but I couldn't decide how. After browsing through several Greek shield references, I thought of shaping the shield to look like moth wings, while trying to keep it visually Greek-influenced. I drew up several variations of this idea and wondered if anyone agrees/disagrees with this concept.
2, 7 look good
Updated Thunder-Beast with shield redesign.
ooooh I love the new shield, the moth inspiration is a nice touch !
Thank you! Glad you like it.
That guy is awesome! I really like the new shield too
Thanks man!
Been a while since I commented on here, but I've been creeping xD
I like the shield design, it resonates with your moth man! The pink fluffy beard is nice too
Thanks @nesokaiyoh ! I've been creeping your thread too. Your champion's stunning and getting a lot of attention. It might be a winner. 
Team lightening! The idea of lizards and moths as mortal enemies is great. Also, the wider aspect ratio looks good.
Don't get my hopes up lmao I didn't enter for the prizes (won't complain if I get further than the first round tho) Thanks so much for the kind words!
