While I may try to explain this guy - none do it better then the makers:

Wold guardians are constructed by the druids of the Circle Orboros to serve their warlocks as walking shields. With thick stone and wood bodies that can suffer tremendous damage, the guardians are perfect defenders. Enemies that venture too close find themselves smashed to a pulp beneath tree trunk fists that come crashing down with the force of a battering ram.

So yeah - When I was getting this guy painted up, I did it with Respect.

I had the models commissioned: Circle of Orboros: Autumn was assembled and painted by Blue Table Painting: www.bluetablepainting.com
