About the Project
My wife picked me up the King's of War Vanguard Giant for my birthday, with all the hype around SAGA Age of Magic I thought I'd get him painted up for a monster type unit (I havent got the rules yet so not really sure where he'll fit).

To begin with I wanted the change the base, the smaller square one didn’t really give him justice. I wanted something more imposing, something I could make a bit of a scene.
I decided to use to old CD’s, I stuck three together so it’s a little thicker.
I used some cork I had left over to give the base some definition, at the same time as watching 'The fellowship of the ring' which meant I left some space for water. I wanted to go with a marsh.
I painted the cork with Army Painter's Oak Brown and then highlighted with a lighter brown I had kicking around. The only real blue I had was the GW Ultramarines blue so I went with that. Unfortunately I didn't sand the CD and as you can see it created cracks in the blue, I'd have to sort this later
I added the foliage next which comprised of some summer flock and a few different colors of clump foliage I had kicking around. You'll also notice a hidden kitbash soldier too here, he was made from frostgrave and perry spares Skin Tones
Leather and Fur
Weapon
Finished!
Finished, there’s lots that I’ve definitely missed out as I got excited but hopefully the basics are there so you can get an idea of the process.
Hope your like him!!
