Title: My second Blood Bowl pitch - COMPLETED (well, almost...)
Post by: Christian on January 07, 2013, 10:31:10 AM
I was recently asked to sponsor a local Blood Bowl comp and thought I'd give one lucky sod a custom built Blood Bowl pitch to take home as a prize.

Here is one of the pictures, there are more on my blog (along with some progress shots and some blathering about the weather and things):

Thanks for the feedback everyone. It is such a fun game, I would very highly recommend building a pitch, even a basic one.

My first one looked like this:

You can literally start it on Friday and be playing a game on it on Sunday... including drying time!

@Sangennaru: I have just the thing you want to see coming very soon :)

Looks nice.
Interested how it'll end up.

Making my own BB pitch is one of my many projects to be, so I'm always interested how others do it.

Almost there... next will be the goal posts, another coat of paint on the border, then it's off to Adelaide!

Fantastic and I think the odd square with less scatter or flock looks great as it is.
