I went with the 3.5 edition version of the Storm Giant as that versions look is my favorite version do to the Storm Reaver storm giant from DDO.

Made this guy from a Marvel Miniature alliance Thor from Dollar Tree.

I started with the base Thor miniature and sculpted on a beard with milliput. I sliced off Mjonir and spliced on a sword blade. I anchored the sword by drilling holes in both the mini's hand and the swords blade guard with a small dremel drill bit and placing a bit of paper clip inside. Secured that with super glue. The giants leg armor was made from bits I found in my parts bin, I don't remember what they came from but it worked great.

Nah, its just a piece from an action figure I bought on clearance for a dollar years back for custom fodder. I think it was a Fantastic Four movie Doctor Doom. I gutted it for its super bright LED gimmick. The figure came with a ball of electricity that fit over its LED and lit up and had several bolts of lightning arcing from it. I cut off one of the larger bolts and added it to the sword.
