Stone Giant Raiding Party
« on: December 30, 2012, 08:06:18 PM »
In my quest to end the year with a few more painted figures, I have just finished 3 more -- a patrol of Stone Giants!

Two of the miniatures are from Otherworld, one is an old Citadel C28 Giant.  I did quite a few conversions on these, and took pictures of them before painting.  For more details and lots of photos, please check out my blog.  (Link below.)

Hope you guys like them!

Those look great.

FYI... when I went to check out your blog it turns out you used the [email] tag instead of the hyperlink tag.

Hey, thanks for the heads-up, I've fixed the link. 

There is plenty more mini stuff to check out on the blog under the 'Older Posts".

The Big Guys & that Oh-So-Cool background piece are BEAUTIFULLY WELL DONE! The flesh tone & stone effects are FANTASTIC...GREAT brushwork.

Now this is simply outstanding. Great idea and even greater execution. What more could one hope for?

You should post this in Otherworld's Forum!

Completely awesome!  :-* :-* :-* I have the one stone giant primed and have been trying to scrounge up some candidates for buddies to make an encounter group. Not the easiest figure to convert to to mimic the style of. Hats off to you.

Great paint job you have done there, Vongoosewink!

But what I like most of all is: The character the three giants have. The faces tell me something about the personae of the giants. That's really good well done, as mr DEAFNALA would state it.

Keep on like this

Yes that's it!

And they match perfectly, I have never seen the old citadel one and can't pick it from the line up! Amzing job! You need to track down the Ral Partha one and add it in now!
