The position of the arm in the background looks a little off, with both arms in the same place it sort of looks like you're monster look like his arms are more like useless wings. With the rigid positioning of your feet at a right angle to his legs it appears like your monster has no ankles, you should have the toes and foot bending more and curling more in that position. I'd recommend google searching athletes, finding one that is in a similar position to your monster, and re-positioning his background arm and feet in a more appropriate place. btw, Samwise hates doing feet, so if the feet on your monster are frustrating you you're not alone their XD

I wouldn't worry about the background to much, A good deal of concept art has no background at all.
Your dwarf looks a little lean to be a dwarf, even in fantasy they are usually portrayed similarly to how dwarves actually appear; shorter and wider. Also, most miners I've seen generally cover themselves up pretty well - when one is crawling through the ground having protected knees and elbows is probably a big plus. Overall your use of two-colors to define shading and highlights is actually working pretty well, you seem to have that style down.

I enjoyed your video of creating your Egyptian god. The gold seems to be a little flat and plain though (it looked pretty good at some stages of the video). If you're doing an Egyptian deity you've got to get the gold down right though, there are sooo many solid gold things from Egypt XD. Your Aztec-Murloc looks cool to, with color that should turn out pretty cool to.

Looks pretty epic. The name Kraken might be more appropriate for the look of your monster though, I seem to recall the Leviathan being referred to more often that not as a sea-serpent. The Kraken is usually described as a giant squid, and considering the tentacles on that bad boy...

Mythology and Science Fiction are not synonymous terms, Mythology and Mythological entities require some sort of legend, epic, or story that was used to describe how the world works and was believed as fact; while science fiction is largely understood as fiction. For something to be classified as mythological usually also implies people stopped accepting that explanation as fact as well, while myths generally refer to things people still believe in. Still, demi-human religious figures and monsters from popular fantasy literature (such as cthulhu) could still be classified as mythological; while virtually everything from science fiction is not. In fact, I think every mythological figure is tied to a religion while science-fiction characters are not.

I like the solid black for the lobster bits a lot, makes him look more scorpion-esque; and by association more bad-ass. For refining the colors on said parts I'd recommend you look at a scorpion rather than lobster for how the reflections and coloration works, that could look pretty awesome. The head strikes me as a little awkward though, it seems to big and squishy compared to how solid and sturdy everything else on him looks. The detail on his arms is pretty amazing.

I'm getting the same feeling from that I get when I actually find a spider in my house, its uncomfortably creepy.
