28mm Giant Gorilla Centurion

This is one of the first miniatures I painted when I decided to re-try with my glasses. I had many difficulties coming to terms with the loss of focus and depth perception in my right eye, but I missed painting. I now have Goggles and plenty of light to allow me to paint again.

This chappie is from Black Orc Miniatures. I guess he just piqued my interest at the time. He stands about 45mm tall.

As you'd see him on the table.
