Outstanding Grimm!

If the Frost Giant had more bluish skin tone, you would have captured all the old D&D giants perfectly. That Fire Giant is especially good!

Really amazing work there. Very naturalistic renderings. Great brush work.

My only comment about the painting is that Id liek to see some tatoos! Deinately the Viking one has good places on the arms for a bit of knotwork, and I think the fire giant could do with some germainc/mauri tribal work in red. I think some nice freehand tatoos would lift these already superb models to the next level!

The hill giant sculpt always seems to me to look like a news presenter dressed as a cave man!

Thanks All  :-*

Ramshackle_Curtis  you are right with the tatoos.
My problem is that paintig tatoos is very hard for me ist is one of my bigest problems but I hope to get the skill one day.
Other ting is that the giants are commision work and tatoos will rise the price  ;)

Your brush work seems very well controlled so Im surprised you baulk at the idea of some tatooing! Surely thats where the fun of painting is anyway....
