Looking good mate, I have yet to try one of these, I lke yours alot the skin looks excellent, I think a couple of glazes over the skin would make it look alot smoother but so far very nice.

I wouldn't go for an ink of anysort, I personally would go for a mid tone that you have used for the fleah and then water it heavily down and then paint that on, when I say water down heavily I mean heavily so you have what looks like dirty water of the colour you use and then apply in layers letting each one dry before applying the next.

I've yet to paint my giant... I still havent finished greenstuffing the gaps and removing all the mold lines (it was given to me already built so I have to fix all the mistakes they made). Yours looks great so far. Love the skin so far, but it could be a little smoother like Tim said.

For smoothing out with glazes i use a glaze medium almost neat with the slightest touch of the midtone colour, under room conditions it will take longer to dry but you must make sure its bone dry before the next glaze if its needed... i use a hairdryer and leave it for 5 mins good luck with this bad boy

Good start on this one, Razh. I'll defer to the masters on their suggestions on the skin .

I think the glazes did smooth things out a bit. A picture a bit closer would be great.

i think that you have improved the look alot, as mentioned a little bit closer would help to judge bertter, but if in doubt just do a couple more glazes. All in all a nice bit of work mate.

Excellent work mate, the skin is fabulous. The tatt adds a bit of humour that I realy like too.

That's a funny piece I like the skintone, it looks like dirty, suntanned giant skin. The leather color is very leatherish and the 'mom' tattoo really funny . Well done .

Very nice, i like it i just think that the tatoos need some glazing to make them blend better

Lovely painting mate, but I hate the actual model if you dont mind me saying, its make me kind off quesy due to the saggyness of some of his...well...features?

Hmmm this Giant has been untouched for almost a year now I might start on it again, though it might look funny since i have improved a bit over the last year? well, I think I will give it a go, so look out for a update here in thye near future.

Looks great, love the tattoo, he now needs love and hate across his knuckles to finish off the bovvver boy look.
Reminds me that I must finish my giant off.
