From PaulO'G: More Dungeonbowl Players (35 points) (Star Yacht)

Back to the office this week, which has impacted hobby so only a minor submission this week, adding a few new players to my College of Shadows Dungeonbowl team that I submitted earlier in the Challenge.  

Added to the roster is a third Skaven Gutter Runner, Git-git Greenstripe - a fast player who can skitter around the dungeon with great agility...but is admittedly a little fragile (Reilly stomped one to death during a recent match!) 


Also joining the Team is Penny the Pricker, Dark Elf Assassin. This is a player type I haven't used before but anything that against the tower of muscle that is Reilly's team is welcome. 

I'll also use Penny to buy a ticket on Lady Sarah's Star Yacht please: First class (naturally) to Cybertron. Overall, that's 15 points for the 3 figs and 20 points for the Yacht: 35 points please Mr Minion!

From Millsy:

A fine addition to your existing team Paul! I really like the high-contrast limited palette you've used. It works really well with the dynamic poses of the miniatures, especially on the edges of their capes and on Penny's hair. The bases are neat too. Do those come standard with the minis or did you pick them up specially for this?

35 points it is mate. How could I say no when you asked so nicely?!

    1. Thanks Byron- the green really pops when the rest of the figure is monotone. I really wanted a colour to help bring the team together like a uniform

  4. Really liking this project. I hope that the stomping was figurative and not literal.

  6. It looks like you are using contrast paints (or some other equivalent) very effectively- you have a got great results. I am still playing around with them and hope to become as proficient as you.

    1. Many thanks - TBH this is my first real use of them, and I find them quite challenging. Applying a highlight and then an edge highlight really helps. The detailed sculpt is the key to them working I think.

  7. Oh! They are very cool. That strong contrast of the greys with the green looks excellent.

    1. Thanks - in play they vary between amazingly agile plays...and a blood stain on the floor!

  9. Dang Paul, you have done these up wonderfully! Now I hope to be able to paint my own Dungeon Bowl figures just half as good.
