D&D giants have at least three colors, flesh, blue and black. Would it be easier to gather a horde of giants by making them all fleshtone or does that spoil the fun. BTW I certainly dont care what gw thinks. These are also for me not commission. I am kinda torn as the other colors are cool. Does anyone ever gather a hoard of giants? I noticed a lot of excellent art on the web making frost giants a great comic book blue, or they could be painted like freezing human skin. I'm looking at a blood rage giant right now pondering…what shall I do… |

I would think East Woodland Indian warpaint colors would look good. The black and red particularly. Would think a giant would appreciate warpaint. Had I good green-stuff skillz then a Chav/Ned giant in light blue tracksuit, white tennies, and brown chequered baseball cap would look good. Chains not optional. No offense to the Neds on this board, just think would make a good giant fig. |

I have recently, thanks largely to Reaper Bones painted quite a few Giants, and I prefer to give them different skin colors. Even the "flesh colored" Hill Giants I paint to have more of a brown sort of "Earthy" look, maybe like a Hobbit. Frost Giants are blue, Cloud Giants grey/white, Stone Giants grey, Storm Giants purple or sea green. I have a Fire giant and still haven't deided how to paint her yet. Maybe red? |
