Default All-Time New York Giants Pics

Hi All -

Thought I'd share a few pics of my latest project. I enjoyed painting and detailing this team, for my Dad was a big Giants fan, and he used to talk about the Giants greats when we watched the Giants games together while I was growing-up in Connecticut during the 70's. Although we watched a lot of losses during that "dark era" in Giants history, I'd enjoy it when he talked about the days that, "the Giants used to be great ": Defense to follow in a few weeks.

I painted them with the current uniforms and accessories, like gloves and wrist bands.

Thanks to the following:

FIGURES: SIW
CHIN STRAPS & FACEMASKS: SIW
DECALS: RAIDERMIKE
GIANTS BLUE & GREY PAINT: RAIDERMIKE
OTHER COLORS: TESTORS
HELMETS: RIDDELL

( thanks RM for the "Giants Blue" - it's not an easy color to match with other paint brands )

Met quite a few great coaches while at WinterFest last year, and I look forward to seeing everyone again - Russ ( I was the old guy wearing Patriot T-shirts )




Two Great Giants QB's pose for a pic: Phil Simms and Y.A. Tittle



Before he hit the Monday Night Broadcast Booth, Frank Gifford used to follow the awesome blocking of Rosie Brown.


Two TE Greats, Mark Bavaro and Bob Tucker:


Giant Legends: Jack Stroud, Alex Webster, Kyle Rote, Del Shofner, Gifford and Brown:



Some of the younger guys: Tiki Barber, Simms, Amani Toomer and Tucker

Default G-Men look hot!!

This is a very nice job, very crisp and clean. After seeing your team, I may have to do a team of G-men, perhaps in the red home jerseys. Thanks for sharing and keep those pics coming!
