So woodwoses en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wild_man… are they part of your fantasy universe or are you just drawing this for fun? I find it interesting that like dwarves, giants & mischievous spirits ( gremlins, elves, etc) they appear in practically every mythology in different forms- wild men/woodwose in europe, Chuchuna in Siberia, Orang Mawas in Indonesia, Moehau in New Zealand, etc. this particular deviantart map had an interesting twist on it: www.deviantart.com/onehellofab…

Hmm yeah I’ve found giants difficult to do myself. My own template ended up being basically heavily built men with “the height of basketball players but the strength of football players” as i explained to my sister. Basically instead of going with an ogre like approach or a ginormous fantastical approach. I just developed them into big men with a broad built- , maybe looking kind of like Beorn? They’re always grouped with dwarves so of course i made them enemies of dwarves but also living in different locales ( i put the dwarves as living in a centum europe, abd the giants in a Satem europe)- and having similar traits in terms of build, ( great strength, big shoulders, etc. though more body surface area abd less compact) and technological inclination( giant stone structures, advanced metallurgy, rich, long-lived, etc). Still it took a long time for me to flesh them out.
