Excellent painting there. How big is the fire frost giant?

Thank you. He's pretty small for a giant, you can see in the pics below.




Here's what I managed to get painted for Big April '17:



And a showing off progress shot of my painted giant collection so far....

Meat-giants...



(I didn't paint the big Black Scorpion giant on the left.)



Skeletal giants...





And for the sake of completeness, my rat giant...

I quickly finished painting and based some of the undeadish cultists. They're mostly old Citadel Disciples of the Red Dead Redemption troopers, plus an old (chaos?) wizard, and one of the new "oldhammer" figures (this one from Ramshackle Games - bearing an "old hammer") I got at the last Oldhammer USA day. I thought the latter two would fit well with the unit, and I'm not disappointed!

I'm still in the process of painting the four command figures from the Disciples unit.




I also got to play my first games of any sort... http://www.zerotwentythree.com/2017/05/game-day-disciples-wip.html

I agree. The Owl's eyes ensure that the piece will be WONDROUS to behold...a FINE start!

Thanks all! I decided to take a different approach with the eyes this time and was also happy with how it turned out.

Not sure who the sword swinging blonde is referencing...  ???



I added the last few troopers to the cultists, plus an old Citadel cleric (front rank, to the right) who also seemed to fit as another champion. I still have a second Disciples command set, but don't know how soon I will paint them. Maybe just the standard bearer and musician? Looks like I can use this as either a medium-large unit, or split them into two smaller ones.
