Red's BloodBowl Log

[Red Skullz]

Wights:

These guys turned out big, but they`re very cool though! From the riders in the manticore and zombie dragon sets.

Mummy:

Not a huge mummy fan so went for zombie ogre count-as.

4 first skellies done:

The four zombies will be finished this evening so pics then. I`ve also figured out that by using my count-as mummies as count-as flesh golems I can make a necromancer team with only adding two zombies and two werewolves. I`ve also received the last bitz so I can make the second count-as mummy/flesh golem. Nice

Love those guys! Very original!

[Red Skullz]

Crappy pic but here`s the zombies:


I`ll take better ones of each player when I`ve got the team done.

@Artificer Armour: Thanks

R

[Red Skullz]

The team is done but I`ll make to werewolves and two more zombies so I can set up a Necromancer team as well. For individual pics, check the teams page:

Awesome undead team!
I especially like the take on the mummies using zombie ogres! The Wights are very dynamic and cool looking. The Skelleton down on the left is so full of rage and expression which is fantastic=)
Really good work!

[Red Skullz]

Cheers klas Very proud of this team, making a display base for them as well!

Next up will be a Skaven team which only needs dullcoating and flocking and a Dark Elf team that needs the display base done. Stay tuned

[Red Skullz]

A couple more teams, none for me personally. The Skaven team is a prize for a tourney we held and the Dark Elves are commission.

Skaven Runners:


Skaven Linerats:


Skaven Thrower, Rat Ogre and Blitzers:


Never painted up any of the old range Skaven but I really like them. Looks great imo (the sculpts)!

[Red Skullz]

Then it`s the Dark Elves, not the best pics here either, the yellow and skin did not come out well on the pics..

Dark Elf Linemen


Dark Elf Blitzers


Witch Elves & Assasins


Runner & Cheerleader & Runner


This team is a healthy mix of old and new Dark Eldar bitz as well as some Eldar things. I`ll take a final pic of the team as soon as the display base is done.

After getting a couple of new players into BB and it`s been quite a few years we haven`t played that much inspiration hit me hard the other day so I went ahead and scrambled through my bitz boxes. I`ve made quite a few teams over the years, I only kept a few of them while selling or giving away the rest. One team that I`ve always wanted was Skaven but there was always something that came in the way of me getting one. This will be the third Skaven team I make but this one is mine to keep

With that said, WiP pics. Only lack tails before I start greenstuffing.

Linerats (linemen):

In a skaven team these are your expendables but I just had to include that fat rat in with the linerats, so he`s a keeper My fav figure in the team so far! Other than that I`m searching to see if I have a few more open hands and stuff like that to move away from the gobbo parts a bit more. It`s not critical but it would break up the monotony.

Running rats (gutter runners):

Ghoul legs and arms, goblin torso, pistolier cloaks and stormvermin head. I like them a lot! Overall I try not to scalecreep to hard and have made everyone smaller cause skaven are small. But with the runners I couldn`t do that without messing up the flimsy legs of the ghouls. However they are stick thin so strength 2 is still valid I would say.

Throwing rats (throwers):

This is a new one for me. I usually never bother with having more than one thrower, but I`ve advanced my strategies (I think-think)

Blitzing rats (storm vermin):

Storm vermin upper body but to scale them down I used some old skaven and gobbo legs. They look cool with all of the spiky punchgloves thingies.

Unique rats (Rat Ogre & Fezglitch):

Yes do name the parts of the Rat Ogre, I dare-dare you! The Fezglitch mini is just so nice I had to add it. Note it`s not the stock Fezglitch mini!

the wight models are crazy good, nice work red!

-hawke

[Red Skullz]

Thanks a lot G

I think that the Undead team is by far one of my best efforts in any game system really. From theme, conversions and paintjob. I also really like the wights. Expensive bitz list on them but totally worth it! Now I plan on making the skaven team so nice that it will at least be as good if not better

R

oh and greenstuffing has begun!

[Red Skullz]

Been a few days but here`s an update. I was inspired by the spikyness of the artwork in the rulebook.

Linerats:

You can`t see it but I`ve furred up the arms on the smaller linerats.

Throwing rats:

I wanted a few mutations. Hopefully I`ll get doubles so that I can play wysiwyg.

Blitzing rats:

Spikes on every surface I found.

Running rats:

Nothing special but one of these got a big hand.

Rat ogre:

Takes time taking it in turns but I think I`m on the right path with this one.

R

[Red Skullz]

I inherited my younger brothers lizardmen. I decided to make a team out of the metal minis in that collection.

Skinks:


I used kroot arms to get better posing on them. Looks kinda out of scale in the pics but it`s not so bad irl.

Saurus and "krox":
¨

The ones with the skull helmets will be for defensive play while the featherheads will be offensive. The "krox" I`m not sure I`ll keep the headdress yet. I like it but also I`m quite sceptic on it. Opinions?

R

[Red Skullz]

Bah, who am I kidding...the headdress needs to go!

A lot more happy with this direction. I`ll do the same style of helmet on the skinks where the crest is to badly damaged after I trimmed off arms and a lot more.

R

[Cap'n Facebeard]

Great dynamic models and conversions. I like the skeletons the most.

[GlenMorray]

Some of your stuff is crazy as hell but I LOVE it, good work fella.

It seems more Europeans are interested in BB than in England!

[Red Skullz]

@Cap`n Facebeard: cheers mate

@GlenMorray: hehe, I aim to challenge myself, happy you like it BB is fantastic in a league setting, probably one of the best games I know of.

R

[Red Skullz]

Feels like it`s taken forever but when I finally cracked the mental barrier of getting the job done it all went very fast.

Here`s the two first saurus done:


Wanted a simplistic but striking colour scheme. I think I nailed that. The thought is that they have dyed everything red before they go to war on the pitch. Oh and just to keep the retrofeel proper I used Lightning Bolt Blue from the old Citadel paints on the skin and scales. Aaand in true old-pot style the lid went off, on my pants then on the floor and making a right old mess....not everything was better before! On the subject of saurus, the last four will be done in a day or two.

I`ve also made more progress on the kroxigor:

Mainly smoothing out the damage after I clipped off the legs and arms of the original mini but also making the necklace. Very pleased with the greenstuffing on the necklace.
