From SanderS: Let's play ball! (55 points)

 Hoi,

 

At the end of the Challenge we always are asked to show some pictures of our painted goodies and ourselves. Well my picture will be a mighty empty one since a lot of the stuff I am painting this Challenge is for friends. My mate Mark has only one army: WFB Skaven, as such he also has only one team for Blood Bowl: Skaven. He has asked me to paint them up for him and so here are the "Labrunners"

First up: I have painted up just 10 of the 24 figures he has for his team as I wasn't able to finish the two gutter runners yet. 

 


I did print him a BB Bleachers for displaying the figures in the cabinet including the markers

Apart from the Rats shown above I have also painted up an old school white metal Star Player figure called Zug. I painted him up in the colours of the newest Imperial Nobles team of burgundy and creme. 

 



So 11 figures x 5 points is another 55 for the scoreboard.

 

Cheers Sander


Nice rats!

  4. Wonderful brushwork, Sander. Skaven always crack me up and you've done them proud here. I also really like the display plinths. Bravo!

    1. In a more relaxed time, long ago, we played WFB with Mark using his Skaven and me using Goblins. It practically became a waiting game who would run away first or blow himself up. So yeah I have fond memories of Skaven too

  5. These figures are even more wonderful, knowing they’ve been painted for a friend.

    1. yes and the good part is all the fun we're having up front before we even played a game. The colours of the team are the teamcolours of Mark's favourite F1 team. His story is that his rats stole this un-Skavenlike stuff from another team who now have to enter the field in their bare bums.

  6. I can't play BBowl without using Zug. He is the heart and soul of the game

  9. "Labrunners" - love it. Terrifying what happens when the lab rats get loose and go pro.
    These are beautifully painted.
    Cheers, MikeP
