Giant WIP III

The endless story...

Since the last post, I've been able to paint the sword and the arms of the giant. First pictures show the shield and the sword glued into place. The sun is perfect to indicate the giant's allegiance to the Sudenland.
 

The following picture shows the left arm completed and some dirts and bruises added on the legs, below the knees (not sure you can actually see them, though).


The third set of pictures shows the two arms assembled. The trunk and the oddly sculpted moss or foliage was quite hard to paint properly, if you have some piece of advice to improve the look, feel free to post a comment!

Note the blood splatters all over the legs... not my initial intent, as I was only targetting the end of the trunk. In the end, it's not that bad.






Hopefully, the next post will be the final one for this giant!

  1. Looks fantastic so far. As far as the moss maybe the only thing would be to just add some of your basing material to it, which may end up pulling the look of it closer to the rest of the model. Your ground cover has a lot of reddish brown showing through, the moss on the club does not. Maybe that's what's bothering you about it? Anyway as it is looks great regardless.

    1. Good idea for the basing material... unfortunately too late. I should have glued some sand before the base coat. But I've used the same pastel tones as for the base, though. Thanks!

  3. Your work on him is absolutely enchanting and I just keep discovering more and more every time you post some progress! The colors have such brilliant warmth to them and work together brilliantly. I love the effort you've put into the patterns and heraldry on his clothes, the details on the fingers and nails, the cuts and bruises - just glorious :)
