Really nice painting, I especially like the guy on the right with the flames on the helmet!

4 Linemen, just 3 more models to go - so the team will be finished tomorrow (can't wait as I don't like painting these models  :? ). Ended up going for a simple TT quality paintjob, I simply can't work well with these type of models - spikes and shit everywhere. I regret I don't have any of my olf WHFB empire plastics left for converting.

More pictures on each of the 4 new models on my blog:

I really like the blue/white colour scheme on these guys, makes me want to collect a bloodbowl team (even though I don`t play).

Great stuff

Very nice work even though you only call it tabletop quality. The end result on these models definately seems worth it to me! 8)

Really nice crispy white :)

Your opponents must really enjoy playing agains you.

(or not, depending on your skill)
Why aim for gold if you can get lead?

Pictures from today's Blood Bowl game against my buddy Calle/Millmir and his Halfling team. More pictures and a rundown of events/results on my blog: http://anatolisgameroom.blogspot.com/2011/01/blood-bowl-game-151.html


All I can say is that this game is crazy fun, and that the PC game proved to be a good training ground allowing me to get a grasp of the rules, team tactics etc.

Another Blood Bowl game was played at another friends house today, and another victory for the Human team, 2-1 vs a team of Chaos Dwarfs. Though one of my Blitzers died and my earnings sucked, all my saved money went into purchasing a new blitzer to replace the dead one. But still a very fun and tense game.

A few more pics and a description of the game on my blog:

Another game of Blood Bowl this afternoon as I was visited by my Chaos Dwarf playing friend, more pictures and a quick description of the game and my thoughts on the Chaos Dwarfs as opponent can be read on my blog. This was a "friendly" game so we did not record any stats and we played with basic teams as if we had started over from scratch. The idea is for everyone in our game group to play one game against each other so that everyone gets to face each separate team and level up/earn cash on a even level. Unfortunately my Halfling playing friend is busy otherwise we could have squeezed in a few games during the weekend and continue the league gaming.

First of all congrats for a very good looking team!
Love those little details you've added to the players like the small flame on the blitzer's helmet, or the "ace of spades" on the shoulder pad... (hummm... "ace of spades"... I guess I'll have to put a Motörhead cd on play now...) ;)

Congrats for the wins with your team!
Cheers,
A.

PS: By the way, that "Magic" stadium looks great!

Thanks Axtklinge ,


My Halfling playing buddy has a bunch of teams he won't need so I'm thinking about trading/buying his unpainted Orc team as well  :)

Quite possibly my favourite wargame of all time and I love it when people post there models. This game is the one that got me into the hobby.
Stunning figures and I'm a big fan of your team colours to! Excellent work mate, I'm following this closely.
