Basecoating Giants

In this post I cover basecoating the giants.  I decided to go with a black skin tone and will add contrast by painting the beards orange/yellow to go with the lava theme.  Also in this post are two modified elves from Eureka Miniatures.  They sent me these by mistake and let me keep them when the correct item was shipped.  Since I don’t plan on making an elf army, I’ve been looking for excuses to use them elsewhere.  They’ll be added to the giants’ bases as a nod to the old Warhammer giants.

Details in the captions.  At this stage, all colors are zenithally airbrushed.
