Bit bulky. Looks like a giant dwarf. But that's not per defination a bad thing. Just a bit getting used to... having a big figure with little people proportions (Giants are usually tall and lean (or spindly with potbelly) empathise the tallness.
Not werners best but i like it. though I would have prefered a slighly less masice look (the cape and plate and bracelets all add to it)

Another 28mm mini for comparison would be nice and helpful.
Quite a step away from the stereotypical DnD Fire Giant, which looks like a ebony skinned roman legionaire ...

Is she a giant? How big is it?

I agree with Cindy, she looks like a giant dwarf (the sculpt, not Cindy ;)) Wouldn't that make her regular-human sized? :dontknow:
She's also looking strainght ahead, and her legs aren't strapped together too, that's odd for Werner. :laughing:
In addition to the proportions, she looks different to me by looking more 'cultured' than the giants I've seen before, the giants from Reaper, at least. By that I mean her armour and accoutrements look more complex and polished to have produced than the general barbarian style favoured by other giants I've seen. It's an interesting sculpt with a lot of great detail.
Addendum: Just checked on the Reaper forum. Total height (including hair) is 68mm, length of weapon approx 90mm.

Me like! Some meat on her bones (or so it seems through the armour) which I call a good thing in a sea of stick-limbed women with breakaway waist.
However I can't quite make out what that thing at the end of her spear is supposed to be.... looks really quite strange.

I think it's the sprue tab, you know, the part you have to trim off after breaking it out of the package. I suppose it's there for casting purposes.
