Picked up some classics on Ebay, a Hill Giant and Ogre to help me run the players through G1 and possibly more of the giants series. I've been using GW contrast paints for the past few years. I can get them to a level of slightly sloppy but detailed in record time. Throw a wash of Agrax Earthshade Gloss and they look quite good on the tabletop.
This is a classic Wizard sculpt I've never owned until now. I'm going to use it as my Boldvay the Blackened mini
On left is an excellent female Dwarf sculpt, not enough female dwarf minis out there. The mini on the right is the first mini I ever used in a D&D game. My DM gave it to me after helping me convert my Moldvay Basic Dwarf to an AD&D Dwarf Fighter and running me through some sessions. Yeah it's a halfling thief mini but it was nice of my DM to give it to me, I was just a kid probably 4th grade. He was a much older kid who was very kind for showing me the game I was so fascinated with. Lost years ago, it was nice to reacquire.
I don't know why Grenadier sculpted the Ogre to be taller than the Hill Giant but there you go. They both are 1985 Grenadier releases.
