FINSIHED! This one started out as a completely different mod. I picked up an extra Eldritch at Gencon for the express purpose of converting him into a male Storm Giant. The more I thought about it though, the more I realized how I would NEVER use a Storm Giant and if I did could just use female, cloud or eldritch. What I DIDN'T have and have actually used against party (in Age of Worms) was a Titan. With that in mind I started the mod.

I started off removing the sword and cutting and repositioning hand. Will drill out and make an appropriate sized maul. For his other arm I cut away from body, cut arm at elbow and greenstuffed and cut off hand. I seperated all the fingers and moved with heat and then reattached. For the face I greenstuffed to remove his terribly receding hairline and gave him proper eyebrows (maybe a BIT big) and mustache. The flame (I am going by the bad MM pic) is the tail of a living fireball. I MIGHT try some mild lighting effects. Have never done so don't wanna screw up! Will try to get primed and painted soon! Comments/critques/advice always welcome!

Here is work so far. Have done some of the base colors and skin (need more touching up there). finished start of hammer last night after trying some other stuff to use. Remember it IS supposed to be big. The maul is for Gargantuan creatures. see description. Should be done once I get more time to paint and how to dress up base

Most of painting is done. Did the trim, hightlighting on hair,beard, hammer, skirt. Need to clean up, touch up, do a bit more painting and figure out what to do for his base. might cut off, put down flagstone with apoxie then put thim back.

Removed him from the base (WHAT a PAIN!!!) and made the flagstone base out of apoxie and then reattatched him. Did all final painting and touch ups. Comments/critiques always welcome!

Great conversion----If you put a sword hilt on the scabbard it will be perfect

Thanks. Glad you liked! The flaming sphere was a PAIN to chop off!! Will make a hilt for the scabbard one day. His sword is being used on a pc mini now

Excellent work. The only thing I think could've improved it - and I will admit up fron that this is really nit-picky - is to have attached the handle bit from the original sword to the top of the scabbard on his back so it looks like he's carrying a sheated blade rather than an empty scabbard.

Very Cool.

Pathetic Earthlings. Hurling your bodies out into the void - without the slightest inkling of who or what is out here. If you had known anything about the true nature of the universe - anything at all - you would have hidden from it in terror.

I like that so much more than the Eldritch Giant, there's no real comparison.
