Hrimm - a journey in paint

When I was looking to acquire a Frost Giant for my army, they were all sold out. After contacting my newly made friend Maikel at CCGWinkel.nl , he advised me to get a DnD model from steamforged. And boy was I in for a treat: After playing with him a few times, it was time to start working on him for my hobby goals of the Halpi campain as well as just because he is awesome.

No worries, Maikel mirrored the models and suddenly we had 6 models, three each and presto! Primed! Some paint. Better make some friends quick. Ready to go on a base. Basing the beasties The actually most interesting part of this build is the base. Because these regiments are exactly two troops in size and number, we can break them up to use them in other configurations. Thank you Vince for your inspiration on this. What I wanted was to create a whole, that felt like a solid ba...
