how about these ranks:
Balance +39, Bluff +29, Climb +39, Concentration +36, Craft (sculpting) +43, Decipher Script +35, Diplomacy +29, Gather Information +29, Handle Animal +36, Heal +29, Intimidate +36, Jump +39, Knowledge (arcana) +39, Knowledge (nature) +39, Knowledge (religion) +36, Knowledge (the planes) +29, Listen +29, Perform (comedy) +35, Perform (oratory) +29, Perform (sing) +29, Search +29, Sense Motive +14, Spellcraft +39, Spot +29, Survival +39, Swim +29

I’m fine with your skill selections. :) they work for a woodsy-outdoorsy survivor type like epi.
Those ranks look real good. :)
 

Remaining items I see, before I post in homebrews…

Damage reduction 15?/epic
Challenge Rating: 28-29?
Treasure: Double standard?

Want to write up a description?
This colossal humanoid…

Epimetheus is 100 feet tall and weighs (725,000?) pounds.

Epimetheus speaks… (Abyssal, Common, Celestial, Draconic, and Giant standard – Sylvan also seems likely)

Suggestions for Combat text?
 

Yes to damage reduction 15/epic and double standard treasure.

He's about equal to Coeus in power, so I'd give him the same Challenge Rating of 27.

This colossal humanoid bears a friendly, relaxed countenance. He dresses finely, but his clothes are somewhat disheveled. His eyes seem vacant, as if in a daydream.

Epimetheus is 100 feet tall and weighs 725,000 pounds.

Epimetheus speaks Abyssal, Common, Celestial, Draconic, Giant, and Sylvan.

Combat Text: Epimetheus prefers to avoid combat, but if forced into battle, or if animals or innocent creatures are in danger, he joins the fray. Epimetheus uses his spells and spell-like abilities to summon animals and aid them in battle, while battering adversaries with his massive fists.

nice touch. ;)

ok, posted in homebrews! check it out, tell me what you think.

(do'h, what was the jump speed bonus again? +4 x3?)
 

Yes, you are correct on the Jump bonuses. ;)

Shouldn't his slam do Str and 1/2 since it is his sole natural weapon?

Otherwise, I think he looks good.

yes. :) you can find all of the titans we've converted, except for Epimetheus who we're still working on, and many many other 3.0 and 3.5 conversions right here: http://www.enworld.org/cc/converted/index.php :) enjoy and i hope you find it useful! stick around for discussions if you feel like it. :)

I certainly will. I'm working on a campaign to start at 6th and go eventually epic. I'd love to throw some of the old 1E favorites in as potential enemies and see the fear in the eyes of old school gamers realizing that they might meet up with Orcus again twenty years later, only this time it ain't junior high school. So the titans are a bit less interesting except as stat blocks, which is, of course, something of a debased use of your work. Nevertheless, having the stats to apply to a titan-analogue wearing something other than a tunic is still very helpful.

OMG! are we Now done with the titans? Cliff Holds his breath in nervous anticipation of convering Jormundgandur.)

Cliff :D
