I recently came across a couple of the old collectible pre-painted Wizards of the Coast D&D "Giant Frog" figures that I had stuck away in a box to use with another project; and the idea hit me how perfect they'd be to represent the Frostgrave Ice Toads. I could see it would take only a suitable re-paint and re-basing to convert them to use in a winter setting.
The hardest part was removing the base, which is cast on these fellows. So, I had to remove each one with a hacksaw. After that I glued each one to a fender washer and spray primed them with flat white primer. After that it was just a matter of painting them in winter colors.
I'm really pleased with ow these fellows turned out. They are shown above with a 28mm figure for scale.
