HAHAH!!! These are the creepiest models I have seen! HAHAHA! This is the stuff of nightmares! Well done. So far, my favorite is Big Ted Bear of Nurgle! Great job with the teeth! HAHA! I just saw it has a heart in the chest area! AHAHA! Awesome!

Cool theme, nice colour scheme. This is a great Blood Bowl team - highly original.

Are you playing on astrogranite? (the grey bases are a nice idea but might look out of place on the grass pitches. Maybe nice green static grass around the edges with withered dry/brown static grass near their feet. If you are going for astrogranite a little greenstuff to texture it would look cool (and fill those little gaps in the slotta bases).

Cheers Laney Very Happy

The grey bases is just stage 1 will add another coat of burnt umber then give it a wash of devlan mud, then will add in some "grass" and maybe some mud effect or even try some kind of slime effect. just getting the minis done then will work the bases.

Yeah my wife makes key rings and bracelets so she has a great stash of bling for me to raid for my hobbies.

I am getting some Necron Scarabs and trying to find some smaller keys to go into. Will use them for some kind of counters or scenery.

Will be working on the rest of the stuff later in the week hopefully when the stuff arrives.

Cheers

I don't think my first post gave enough painting credit - the teeth and gums on that big bear + the overall look is superb. The tabletop view shows how effectively they all work together (love the idea with the scarabs too - a necron version of these guys would be very cool).

Cheers Laney Very Happy

Thx Laney means alot coming from such an amazing artist like yourself.
yeah I am going to make the "Necron" version for my Boy just got to figure out what to use from them. So he can have a Robot team.[will use Orc stats with them.]

So I'd need a Necron fig to represent:

4x Black Orcs
4x Orc Blitzer
4x Orc Linemen
1x Orc Thrower
2x Gobbos
1x Troll

any ideas?

Cheers

With the new necron plastics coming out next month there will be loads of options available (some nice bulky robots to model). Maybe - a deathmark for the thrower and head swap the others to make the blitzers, immortals or lychguard for black orks, regular necron warriors for linemen.

The gobbos and the troll might be more problematic - you could use scarabs for gobbos, but I think you need a cool walking robot for the troll - maybe look at other companies for something you can necron.

Another ace theme!

Laney Very Happy

I think the roll counters are fine! Once you base them, they will be perfect. Your basing idea seems very fitting. Just make sure you close the gaps on the bases. Just Kidding

The paint on the Rotters, although simplistic is right on! It makes the team cohesive (you want that on a team!) I don't think you need to do anything else to them. The models don't have much detail anyway.

I think the Pestibears still need work. Not much... just that you need to paint the teeth! You definitely NAILED it on the Big Ted Bear of Nurgle (big bear)... he looks scary!!! Since that model is so big, it draws attention... and since the teeth are so well done, it raises the bar. You see "little bears" and you immediately want to look at them. No teeth? Sad Make some nice evil dentures for them... would bring all the bears to the same point as the big one... MEAN AND SCARY! Twisted Evil

The little key is GREAT! I missed that... and I laughed when I saw it. GREAT JOB!!!


Can't wait to see them finish. You are so close! Thanks for sharing.

Thx

The Pestibears are getting worked on tonight after work. I did some more work on their teeth last night. But spent my time converting the last two bears into Cheer leaders. I am pretty happy with the way they both came out. Will post pics later on once I've slapped on some paint I am sure you'll love them both.

One in particular I am really happy with I was thinking yesterday at work about what I am missing for the "Theme" and it hit me there was one character that was missing. I had a rough idea how I wanted him to look and well you will see soon enough.....

I may give the rotters a thin downed wash of brown ink just to blend the dry brushing. the Pestibears will have some more dry brushing done and will also fix up the missed areas [eg white dots ]

This team has been fun a real blast will post pics of my daughter's animal theme soon just waiting on the farm animals to arrive.
and then i'll start the lads Robot team.

Cheers
LGW
