Outstanding!  The conversion on the Otherworld model is amazingly well done.
So many games, so little time.

That's going to be hard to reproduce, base with Citadel Foundation 'Charadon Granite', wetbrush with Polly S Fantasy 'Gungy Brown' (long unavailable), final light drybrush with Reaper Prp-paint 'Stone Grey'.


Pretty much any dark-medium-light progression will work, so long as you use similar colors.  I almost never use the same thing (by the time I paint another set I've usually forgotten what I used last time.)  Just experiment, you'll find something that works for you.

Spectacular array of giant-sized goodness! Now I need to go buy an Otherworlds Stone Giant mini. I'm feeling inspired.

I think I'M gonna replace grungy brown (because the only person I can buy it from is in the states and wants very high postage) with vallejo us field drab - I *think* they look kind of the same.

Fantastic job
I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it anymore and what is it seems weird and scary.

Wow! Stunning work, as was stated before these minis have a lot of character. Went to your blog and love the Ogre tanks; especially the confederate flag one.

You have very cool toys, from your giants to your Ogre tanks to your Star Wars vehicles,

Thanks for all the positive comments everyone, they are really appreciated.

And thanks to the new guys who joined my blog -- the more the merrier!

These Stone Giants were a lot of fun, I'm still looking for a suitable pet Cave Bear for them.  After these guys, I have another band of about a dozen Hill Giants from various manufacturers waiting in the wings... though let's hope it is not the end of the new year before I can get to them!   ::)
