Tomorrow is the sporting event of the year- Eucalyptus Bowl! (FIFA eat your heart out!) I'm taking my Khorne team- Hardcore Khorne- these are the
Ares Demons from MK1881. They were a pain to put together- I'm getting a bit sick of multipart metal figures. I didn't want them to have the typical red armour as I thought it would blend with the daemons' skin, so I went for white and I'm pretty happy with the colour scheme. The red skin was shaded with a mix of red and brown wash, and I like the final appearance.

I'm indebted to the Scalecreep team for the term '
haemoerotic'.

I thought this terrifying familiar from
Reaper would make a great coach:

And this is a great point to show these resin skull piles. I have had them for about 20 years, I think, and they're indestructible and versatile. I commonly use them in
Blood Bowl for reroll markers, but I'm sure you can find a use for them in many games. They're still available from
Eureka, and I can't recommend them enough.

In other
Blood Bowl news, my
Ogre team paintjob has been used among some examples for a crowdfunding campaign to get these teams released in resin by
Impact! Miniatures. Tom, the one man team at Impact!, helped keep
Blood Bowl alive in the decades it was otherwise neglected. The crowdfunding campaign can be found
here, and at time of blogging has a few days to run.

What an awesome looking team!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michael!
DeleteYeah - the white really pops out. Nice work!
ReplyDeleteCheers, FMB- I try to go for a bright, almost cartoon appearance for my BB teams and get that Pop.
DeleteBest of luck at the tournament, I look forward to some match reports.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Phil- kickoff is in 15 minutes! They’re not a strongly ranked team, and I haven’t played them before, but a tourney report will go up next week.
