Title: Apes for Blood Bowl
Post by: Laughing Ferret on August 31, 2012, 07:34:13 AM

I have a soft spot for apes, and I've done two previous projects focused on apes, one for weird world war II & the other for empire of the dead, now I have an Ape team for Blood Bowl, maybe my favorite minis game.

You can see more pictures & find background for them here:

I'm going to use them as a counts-as Human Team, but they're cooler than humans, since they're apes  8)

One nice thing is I'll be able to use a lot of these apes for other minis games and settings.

An excellent looking team. I did one a few years ago using heroclix repaints and a few metal figs. I used lizardmen rules for them.

Thanks all, I appreciate it, the puns too ;)

I took the team to a small BB Tournament this weekend, I'll be doing a report for the three games, one a night till I get them all, the first is here if you'd like to see them in action  :D

Thanks Faber, I am quite addicted to making teams  o_o
Chairface: sounds fun! I had an idea about making a Monkey team that might use the Lizardmen roster.
