Potential Miniature - Jim Holloway Hill Giant

Hi Guys!

Thought I'd bounce this off you learned ones before proceeding anywhere else. Received this "green" from Jim today. My first thought was, "Wow! This should be a mini!" It was supposed to be issued through one of the more prominent figure companies, but due to some "minor" disagreements, it didn't. In case your wondering, he's dragging a wild boar. I can add more pictures, if necessary.

My question to you is, "What do you think?" I know there's alot of figures out there these days. Otherworld is putting out some awesome figs! Would anyone be interested in a limited edition run of this feller?

Ideas? Suggestions?

He's approximately 3" tall.

Here's a comparison picture.

Very nice detail, like the toes, the veins, and the skin in general. But how tall is it? Can you shoot a smaller photo with a 25mm or 28mm figure in it for scale?

[Edit: That is frickin' huge. I originally thought it was half that size.]

I didn't know Jim Holloway sculpted as well as drew.

Nice mini, one can never have enough giant minis, particularly if one is looking to run the G series of modules some time... I recognize the axeman to the left of the giant as a Grenadier gold box mini, so that's 25mm as a comparison.

Very nice detail. Would possibly look at getting a couple of them if produced (mainly for G1 as previously mentioned by mandalay)

Yes, he is full of surprises! He's actually done quite a bit of 15mm and 25mm historical stuff for a few companies.
