At the start of 2012 I started a little project to make a small range of fantasy football beastmen. After a long and drawn out process taking over 12 months, I've ended up with 6 figures (concepts by Roberto Cirillo, sculpting by John Pickford), which I've stuck up for sale on my blog: http://beastfaceminiatures.blogspot.co.uk/ (http://beastfaceminiatures.blogspot.co.uk/)
I've also started painting my own copies of the figures - here are the 3 I've painted so far:

Hope you like them!

They're quite fun. As you say, slightly retro, which should match with most of the other fantasy football models.

Thanks! Glad you like them. Painted up a couple more yesterday:

I like 'em!

Very nice, both the sculpts and the painting :-*
-
Very nice, indeed!

They add some really nice variety compared to the 'originals'...

Thanks guys - glad you like them :)

Nice one, Axiom! I like the bovine look and the painting is really good. I'm a sucker for orange and green myself.
-
VERY WELL DONE! The Beasty Boys painted up SPLENDIDLY. Of all the Fantasy races, the Beast Men fit with Blood Bowl/American style the best; if not on appearance, definitely on personality.
-
Wonderful paint job on some exceptional good sculpts :)
Got my little set on Saturday - sorry for not letting you know, but have been very busy building a 1:1 shed at "our" new school ;)
-
Very cool paint job and choice of colours
-
Thanks all! I was going for a bright old school vibe with these.
@Clam - glad your set arrived ok!

Finished off the last beastman last night, so the whole set of six is now painted:

And with a bit of photo trickery, this is what a 12-player team might look like:

Just need to sell a few teams to pay back all the outlay!
