Occasionally but rarely Mantic nails it with their models.
Imo their Giant is an example of them nailing it. It actually looks really good and goes well with the GW one.

Started painting my Bonegrinder Giant. Here's my current progress. I love how big this guy is!

Excellent work Mottdon!
What a beast! I actually prefer it overall, especially the face when compared with the Forgeworld one.
What sized base is that?

I'm struggling to believe that model is Mantic, as 1) all their stuff is shit, and 2) that giant is damned amazing.
I especially like the sloping brow - the head looks properly primitive and inbred.
Agreed that this is better than the FW model.

Agreed that this is better than the FW model. Yeah, I was surprised to! I saw it on eBay and then realized when I was looking it over, who the manufacturer was. They also make a frost giant (very similar) that I want to get for my frost ogre army!

My wife has shown me grace and agreed to give me a big game since we're social distancing and trying to stay at home as much as possible during this virus time. Classic Empire vs O&G. I was wanting to see these monsters in action!

Incase any were wondering, several units got delayed in this meeting engagement.

What a game! Tell us how the dice went!!! I will! Might take a few days as we're taking it slow, and we only really get to play after the quads have gone down to bed. I can tell you though, as I'm sure you can already see, the dice don't seem to be favoring the Empire (me) right now. Lots of 1's when seeing who got delayed. Lol!

The game at the start of turn 3, and as predicted, the dice have been brutal to the Empire. Right after these Fanatics show up, they got stomped on by Gork 4 consecutive times, with pinpoint accuracy every time, leaving only these 5 guys...who will proceed to kill themselves. *Sigh*. So much for that nearly 500 point unit. My BSB and Warrior Priest couldn't manage to land a single wound on the Black Or BSB, and eventually flee off the table. Marius Leitdorf is holding his own against the Black Or Warboss, killing his Wyvern, but the BO general has managed to ward save all wounds this far. The accompanying Inner Circle knights are slowly getting whittled down though, having received attacks from the Black Orc, Wyvern and an Archnarok Spider. One Steam Tank just took 8 wounds from the Bonegrinder Giant when he "Thumped with Club". The other took 7 wounds in combat with a horde of Big 'Un Savage Orcs, so....yeah. We'll keep playing, but it's really not boding too well for Marius's forces.

My son felt sorry for my Cannon crew and decided that they could really use the help of his Lego Flash.
