Blood bowl undead team III. Mummies.

I finish my blood bowl team!!!!!

I painted the mummies yesterday night, and today are ready to begin the bloodbowl league in my club!!!!

Mummies

They are the strongest players and the core of my team, Athletic Calvario, the bloodbowl version of Ahtletic Bilbao, my favourite team in spanish football league.

Mummie

My next bloodbowl project is paint a goblin team, as Celtic Glasgow ( I think is ridiculous, green over green, but is not my decission) for one of my club partners.

Blood bowl undead team II. Ghouls and skeletons.

The end is near, I finished the ghouls and the skeleton players, and to finish the Ahletic Bilbao undeads, I only must paint the mummies.

Skeletons and ghouls.

I had no problema with the skeletons, they are easy to paint, and the final work is very nice, but twith the ghouls, I tried to paint one of them, as a cyanotic human.

I don´t like much the model finished... is, too much GW.

I painted over black, with GW imperial purple, blue wash, and first light with elf flesh and second light with pale flesh. Highlighs with white.

I don´t know...

Ghouls.

Skeletons.

Ghoul.

Skeleton.

Blood bowl vintage III.

I finished my vintage blood bowl players.

I painted each player, with a different football team colour scheme:

The chaos dwarf with Newcastle United colours.

The chaos player with Manchester United colours.

The dark elf with Inter Milan colours.

Three vintage miniatures.

Remembering Nobby Styles, I decided paint the chaos player as a Manchester Utd player. I prefer the black trousers because I think looks better, for a chaos player, than the white trousers.

The miniature looks very, well, and, is my favourite of the three vintage miniatures.

Chaos player.

The dark elf, was paint, looking a picture about Inter defender, Cordoba. His uniform is the common for Inter players, but his boots are yellow. I think, a pair of black boots looks better for a dark elf, but a different colour boots, give the player, the look, that I am try to give my players, as modern football players, where, every day is most common the colour boots, white, yellow, red...

Dark elf lineman.

The last miniature, the Newcastle Utd chaos dwarf was paint, looking a Coloccini picture, the argentinian captain of Newcastle. The colour scheme is similar to the dark elf, the boots, as Coloccini boots, are white.

This was the most difficult miniature to paint, because is full of armour, and I hate paint the armour with colours, I only like for the armours, metal and black.

To give a solution to this problem, I painted the shoulders with black and white stripes, also, I hate paint the shoulders, but, I had no choice, the armour or the shoulders.

The shoulders.

Chaos dwarf lineman.

Blood bowl undead team. Zombies and wights.

The blood bowl league is coming to my club!!!

I am painting my team for the league, is an undead team with Ath Bilbao, my favourite team in spanish league, colours. Red and white stripes shirt and black trousers.

Zombies.

The first five miniatures that I finished are three zombies and the two wights of games workshop undead team box.

For the zombies I had no problems, I painted them taking some pictures about TV series and films as references.

The wights were a bigger problem.

I painted the first wight as a medieval knight, with a metal armour, withs three ink washes, chestnut, black and green, to give the armour an ancient look, and, in the knees and one shoulder the red and white stripes.

Wight.

As I wasn't convinced with this model, I decided change the colour scheme for the other wight. I painted a black armour, with tin biz, boltgun metal and german grey dry brushes. And in the edges of the shoulder and in the knees, the red and white stripes.

Wight

I like the zombies, I think the final work is very nice, but the wights... I don´t know.

Now I am finishing the skeletons...

Zombies and wights.

The wood elves are from Sergio De Miguel team. The stadium is from club Dragon collection.

Blood bowl vintage II.

Following with my blood bowl teams, I painted my vintage flesh golem.

To paint the miniature, I didn´t think a lot, all my GW flesh colours, flesh wash, and dry brush, and dry brush...

rear view

For the team colours, I choose -I am painting my blood bowl teams as spanish football league teams- one of the most popular teams in Spain, Atletico de Madrid. I painted over one arm armour, red and white stripes, and blue in the other arm.

front view

I think is a very good add to my vintage miniature collection, and to start a necromantic blood bowl team.

Blood bowl vintage.

One of my club partners, sold me last sunday a big box with around 100 GW vintage miniatures, from 1985 to 1990. Some of them were blood bowl players.

Dark elf lineman

Flesh golem

Chaos dawrf lineman

Chaos player

I was looking for references about those miniatures, but I found, only about the dark elf lineman, and some chaos players like my chaos players, I bought the same miniature two times.

The most interesting, for me, is the golem, I couldn´t find pictures or references about this rare miniature.

The last player, the chaos dwarf is not similar to the classic chaos dwarfs. Those dwarfs are like persians, but this dwarf is like WWI germans, but with shark theeth.
