In last year's published book Hercules, The Art of Gerald Scarfe, Gerald explains some of the difficulties he and I had coming up with the final design for the character of Hercules.
I remember Hercules being the last character design to be approved for animation. Gerald had tried a stylized version as well as a realistic approach. In the end the two of us worked things out together on a few sheets of animation paper, as you can see in the sketches below.
I think you'll find his notes and observations interesting, and I found Gerald lovely to work with.
