Would make nice Game of Thrones giants (according to the book description - not the TV series)
Warriors dreams, summer grasses, all that remains

I like those a lot better the way you've painted them, with less sharp contrast between the skin and fur.  Well done.

Think those make excellent Bigfoot/giant caveman figs, where the Reaper yetis sculpted by Wiebe make better, well, yetis.

Thank you guys for your kind comments.

i paint with Humbrol/Revell enamel and some oil brown with a kind of wash technic like one teached to friend of mine by Bill BREWER (of the Rye Stamp and Hobby shop in London.). I'm not speaking about dripping method like those of army painter, etc.....

30 years later, i have my own painting style.

The fur on these Yetis are very well sculpted, even on 15mm ones. That help a little for a good result.   ;)

cheers
Eric

who are the makers of the 15mm Yetis?
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.
