Blood Bowl: Skaven Team and The End

Over 30 years ago, my Blood Bowl journey started with the second edition metal Skaven models and the above rat ogre that I converted from an old school metal BoneRipper model. That team has long passed on and the rat ogre as given to WS&TZ’s very own James (@dkok) and he’s owned it for a few decades. This fall, I’m hosting a Gutter Bowl event with an old school flair….pre-2016 edition of BB models only. For this, James had sent me the rat ogre back, and with this model I’ve decided that as he was part of the Alpha Team…he’ll also be part of the Omega.

Blood Bowl: The Undead

I meant to get this post out at the end of October, but became pre-occupied. Last October, in celebration of “Orktober” I painted up several flavors of green-skin models to make teams for a few different Blood Bowl titles. This year, I did something similar, but for Undead. Maybe a bit more fitting for October.

Blitz Bowl: The Nobility Team

Cruising through my painting queue this year, I wrapped up models 149-154. So far, this is a banner year in painting. These six Nobility models sat primed in storage for a good long while until I could settle on a theme. I’m envisioning this set from the Border Princess region maybe and with a bit of a Spanish flair.

Blitz Bowl: Skaven Team (and College of Shadow DB team!)

I’ve had these models assembled and primed for close to three years now..or whenever it was when the first edition of Blitz Bowl came out. The long delay in getting ’em painted was because they looked a chore to paint, and I wasn’t sure what color scheme I’d go with. Turns out they were pretty easy.

Dungeon Bowl: College of Metal

Back in Orctober I painted up a Black Orc Blitz Bowl team with the idea being that those six models could combine with the six models of my Orc Blitz Bowl team to be a 12 model strong College of Metal squad. Both Orc teams are black with white shoulder pads. Well, the College of Metal have a few other player options… Human Blitzers and Khorne Bloodseekers.

Blitz Bowl: Lizardmen Team

My son has been wanting to try out the Lizardmen team for awhile, but I tend to lean on a pretty strict “Play it Painted” mentality, so we haven’t run this squad in our Blitz Bowl games. Additionally, I struggled a bit with what color scheme I wanted to go with. Finally, I decided, the heck with it, let’s get ’em done.

Blitz Bowl: Da Troll

Similar to the halflings needing a Treeman in the last post, the goblin team was now short a Troll with the release of Ultimate Edition. I made a trade for one of the plastic Blood Bowl trolls and had a go at doing him up in the browns of my Blitz Bowl goblin team.

Blitz Bowl: Halfling Round Up

Last month’s Orctober project allowed me to wrap up some various odds and ends in my orc Blood Bowl model collection that needed to be completed. Inspired by that, I used November, the month of giving thanks and enjoying a feast, to do something similar for my Halfling models. Let’s see what was accomplished…

Blitz Bowl: Orctober Round Up

This month I took advantage of the Orctober theme to finish painting up any outstanding, unpainted orc, goblin, or troll models. Oddly enough all of my models in this category are part of my Blitz Bowl collection. I have a troll in-flight to the house, so he didn’t make the Orctober cut, but let’s see who got suited up this month…
