Dire Wolf

Collectible miniatures are a great source of inexpensive figures.  I like rebasing/repainting them for reuse on the table. Here's a great example.  It's a dire wolf from Horrorclix.  I rebased it on a 30mm round and gave it a new paint job.

Here it is with an old 25mm Ral Partha monk for size comparison.

Golden Oldies - Ral Partha Giants

I dug up some photos of a couple of RP giants I painted up a while ago.  These are two of my favorite sculpts.  They both hold up despite their age.

The first is a Storm Giant:

I love the bushy eyebrows

 

The next one is a Frost Giant.  This is by far one of my favorite minis.  I usually sell stuff I paint, the Storm Giant found a home someplace on the east coast, IIRC; not in this case, though.  This one has stayed in my personal collection:

I was especially pleased with the way the eyes and jewels turned out.
