It sucks! :drunk:

OK, I lied. It\'s fricking cool! Gave it one of my precious 10s (as there are only a limited number of 10s to give out you know so I gotta be careful with them).

Hate the mini, but that\'s not your fault I just don\'t like the sculpt. Love what you\'ve done with it, makes me want to finish my old Grenadier War Giant that\'s collecting dust in the basement.

realy nice peter, i remember seeing it and having to do a double take as i thought it was the grenadier giant!

i\'ll vote when it\'s finished, because then it will be a 10:)

For the longest time the Grenadier Goblin War Giant was my \'holy grail\' mini.....I never did land it and I have moved onto other things.....

BUT....Damn!

Modernly Nostalgic! I love it Pete.

If I could make one teensy eensy complaint, it would be the water should be swirling around his legs....But, who cares, this is great!

I\'ve got two of them, one built, primed, and partially painted. The other is still NIB. :D

Really beautiful work.
I would have loved to see a gobbo snorkelling between the legs or somethign like that, but I can\'t really criticize such nice work.

Did this place or what? I thought you might have gone for a fleshy affair, what with your recent barbarians. This has come out marvellously well. I gave it a fat 9. I love the water lol

It is indeed quite spiffy. Quite spiffy indeed.

Will you be adding all the other bits you said you didn\'t finish in time?

it\'s a blinder and in the time fantastic...
my first impression on the day was it needs more stuff on the top bit of randomness...then low nd behold read your bit at the bottom and there is more to add...
looking forwad to seeing the finished item...
still at this level awesome..

Any chance you can tell us what you poured the resin into to make the shape and keep such clear sides..

great stuff 10 from me all the way.....

lovely job man. didn\'t realise that was yours. only thing i would say is that it would look better with some ripples (i know i\'m being picky) and also some more gobbo\'s. apart from that, he\'s very nice

well if they can find nits to pick at on this then I aint submitting mine!

Honestly, some people want the moon on a stick!

However, when it is finished with the ripples and whatnot, they Chern Ann will have to turn the voting system up to 11, in true Spinal Tap style!lol

You\'re a freak Avicenna! I find it amazing that it only took you ten days. Incredible!

The walking in water base is a great idea and I\'d love to have a closer look to check out the stuff that\'s in the water. Apart from the cool base I think the painting is excellent! The skin tones rock! (To put it eloquently.)

I have a small question: Because this guy is pretty big did you use larger sized brushes when painting the larger areas such as the skin?

Thanks mate! And great painting!

Cheers.
