Dragontooth Giants - G9 Reptilian Giant & misc.

 

This is an interestingly basic sculpt that I fell in love with whilst painting. Not sure of the sculptor so if you know please leave a comment! The weapon was sculpted for it by a good hobby friend as the original had long gone. I'll possibly be adding some skulls to the base... apart from that just varnishing needed. I love the fact that he seems to be grinning with pleasure.




Also found my old G8 Hrugnir the Giant Carrying his Loot... this is the solid version, he was later cast as hollow. I must get around to weighing him as it's a massive chunk of lead. I picked up the photo print of him a while back... it has G8 stamped on the reverse so I assume it was for promotional purposes?





The box I 'found' him in...


I'd love to get hold of a hollow cast copy and also a carded one.



A few of the Dragontooth giants were based on illustrations from the 'Giants' book. Well worth picking a copy up.






That's it for now. I'm full of 'man flu' so am feeling very sorry for myself...

Most excellent! That Giants book is wonderful. glad there are some minis based on it out there, even if they are rare things!

Such a shame Dragontooth are as rare as er, dragons teeth. I'd love to get some of their elves.
