Hi marineguy,
As you're new here on Kevin's Watch I really should have introduced myself first before laying out criticism on your art. Well, I'm a goofy f*ck - ask anyone, they'll tell you the same. Invariably, my comments are met with objection, but what the hell...I'm well used to it by now. ha ha.
I don't see a problem here, I wasn't taken aback at all.
"You humans are a hasty race!". Only a 'non-human can make such a statement.
How about, a "different race", him meaning "other than giants"? All of his people are "Giants". What would you call non-giants? Little people? He also says they are a "hardy race", not "species", in this case non-human.
Besides which, a Giant can thrust his mitts into the heart of bonfire without doing damaging the skin. A human cannot!
lol, I submit to you that "humans" as WE know them here, can't do many things the people of the Land can. Magic? Bloodguard - never get old or die? Liquefy solid rock? Get flame from wood without smoke? White Magic? Foul? The list is endless for what they can do as opposed to our standards of what a human is.

No! the Giants have stone in their DNA. When Saltheart Foamfollower submerged himself in Hotash Slay, molten rock, he lived to tell the tale. If he were oaken, as in wood, their would have been nothing left of him. But stone... ;)
Would a non-giant be non-human if he did the same thing? This is just "his" gift, his peoples gift. How about a Gravelingus? His hands don't burn, is he non-human?
As you said, this is all conjecture! And of course you're right. For every person who has read the Chronicles there is an equal amount differing images. Which is the stamp of a talented writer, wouldn't you say!
Maybe, but I blame Donaldson for not having enough images to define the people of the Land. LOTR has numerous images to give a hint

In all, everything is cool, I appreciate the feedback.

OK, coming from me, this it is a compliment to call your artwork gay.
I should have made that clearer.
Here's why:

Me and my androgynous lover--
