25mm Giants for my 10mm Armies
« on: June 23, 2012, 10:39:44 PM »
  While at Origins a few weeks ago, I was at the Iron Wind Metals Booth where they had several boxes of assorted figures that they were selling by the ounce.  I was looking through the boxes, when I spotted a couple of these Giant figures. I really liked how they were bent over and looking down as if hitting something very small, and I immediately thought how great they would look with my current 10mm fantasy armies project.  I'm building 10mm fantasy armies for use in playtesting our upcoming "Look, Sarge, No Charts: Fantasy, Ancients, and Medieval" rules.

 So, I purchased two of the Giants and finally got to paint them last week.  I'm really pleased with how they turned out and how they look with the 10mm figures.

Thats a great idea. They really work with those high Elves.

Now these are really what I would call giants. Nice choice of miniatures. Well done.

I wouldn't want to be one of those Elves!  Great-looking stuff.  10 or 15mm fantasy is something I've always wanted to have a crack at.

I really love those poses. Quite often you see giant models who don't look like they are fighting something much smaller then them. I think these guys poses however conveys that perfectly.
