Description
I spoke with Kevin this morning and he said that although the Ogre race can reach as tall as 12ft, they average closer to 8-10ft tall, hence the 10ft Ogre. This is made from the art used in the Official Palladium Fantasy Paper Miniatures packages, available soon on drivethrurpg.com.As with all of my art, this was rendered in DazStudio 4.6 and post-worked in Photoshop CS5.

Currently a hobbyist at actually developing systems, but I may get my foot into a company with some adventure writing - perhaps get picked-up that way (almost did with R. Talsorian about 20 years ago when they were a thing).Β So I may take you up on your commission deal a time or two over the next year.

Absolutely, whenever you're ready.

Thanks! I hope to do a new version soon.

Thanks!Β I'm hoping in the next month or so to repackage the official Paper Minis in smaller packs of 6 instead of the 24-28 they come in now, and add in tri-fold flats.

Yes, but they average 17 feet tall.Β Algor Frost Giants, Cyclops, Jotan Earth Giants, Gigantes (mutants), Nimro Fire Giants and the Titans..

What about, say, mountain giants?
π: 0 β©: 1
Palladium's giants are all essentially humanoid; the Gigantes are generated with random mutation tables so they might have extra limbs or mouths, but still basic bipedal with skin.Β The Jotan Earth Giants are bronze skinned and most commonly the blacksmiths of giant society; no stoney exteriors.

And bugbears? Are there bugbears in this world?
π: 0 β©: 1
There are Bug Bears, they're short bipedal bears with a barbarian-esque style, more feral than intelligent.

Well, thatΒ΄s an interesting take on the "-bear" part. Hey, 17 feet were 5.2 meters right? That means that the giants are pretty big.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes, hence the word "Giant".

At which height does a species from your world considered a giant?
π: 0 β©: 1
Trolls are often referred to as giants when they are on the tall side (like this one, presented at their maximum height), but the Ogres and Wolfen are not considered Giants..

Lets see. Β Well, well, well. Β One millennium 2 dragon. Β Yep, that's Millennium 2.
Neat that Palladium is taking 3D commissions, dude.Β

Oh, do a Rifts themed one with some classic power armors and robot vehicles instead!
π: 0 β©: 1
Sorry, I don't have the means to make 3D models of the Power Armors and Robot Vehicles. My approximation of the Terrain Hopper was about the extent of my ability in that department.

It didn't even dawn on me that those were all rendered and not hand drawn.

I'm doing character commissions for just $25 dollars until tomorrow so I can back the Spinward Traveler kickstarter before it ends, hit me up.

Thanks, I try to move my art as far away from the Uncanny Valley as possible. On the upside that gains me appreciation on a broader scale, but on the downside the rest of the 3D art crowd doesn't care for my stuff at all.
π: 0 β©: 0
Love it! Β Going to be useful for Rifts as well!
π: 0 β©: 1
I am thinking of doing a Phase World one though, as I'm making some minis for the game I'll be running at GenCon (assuming the Robotech RPG Tactics Kickstarter supporters vote to let me go).

hobbit dont exist in palladium fantasy
thats middle earth
π: 0 β©: 0
Nope, no hobbits in Palladium Fantasy. Races not shown include Centaurs, Bearmen, Ratlings, and various Faerie Folk. Giants are also playable, there's a few variations in that line, and then there are several exotic races that I don't think have comparisons in other fantasy settings.

Thanks. This was a fun throw together.

Excellent work!Β Looking at this, I can see why Wolfen will beΒ a trueΒ power.Β Between physical size,Β organization and beliefs.
π: 0 β©: 1
Thanks. Yeah, they've got it going on..

This is awesome! Β I drew one of these years and years ago, shortly after the release of 2nd Ed; but my art wasn't nearly as good. Β -_^
π: 0 β©: 1
Thanks. My drawing isn't that great either, which is why I got into 3D.
π: 0 β©: 1
Mine's okay now (see gallery for evidence ^^ ), but I drew my line-up back when Palladium 2nd Ed was new, IBM's Deep Blue computer was defeating the first ever human chess champion, Taiwan was holding its first direct elections and we were hunting mammoths to fashion polyhedfral dice from their ankle-bones. Β

So around the time I was designing the official character sheets to go in the back of Book III: Adventures on the High Seas.. got it.

Ah, were we ever so young? Β -_^

Although I just had my 40th birthday, I'm confident that I'll live to be 120, so I'm only 1/3rd of the way there.
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, I'm sure the biggest pain in my @$$ will live that long as well, driving me crazy the entire time..

Really great- gives a true, and all new, perspective.
