OK! So for the longest time (since like 2011 or so) I have only had
one painted Blood Bowl team, and these Chaos All-Stars were sitting primed in a Plano case. But my recent New Year's Resolution (host more games!) and a Chaos Dwarfs Blood Bowl team I received as a Christmas gift prompted me to get off my azz and get these guys painted. Of course I also went out and bought the Blood Bowl Third Season box set :-|
These of course are the old metal Chaos All-Stars. I can't remember the copyright dates on the base tags but they do appear in my 2004-05 comprehensive Citadel Miniatures catalog, I think they are the 1994 version of the team. Here are the Chaos Warriors.
I had thought of using numbers from the decal sheets in the Third Season or Chaos Dwarfs team box, but a look in the decal folder revealed a couple sheets of Team Yankee Soviet decals and they sized out just about right.
There's eight beastmen on the team too, four sculpts with two examples each. Good variety.
These guys got similar decal treatment.
With the purple and yellow team colours I was going for a kind of Minnesota Vikings look.
But I haven't formally named the team yet.
Look at this! I even painted eyes on the Beastmen! The whites are Corax White and a fine-tipped technical pen I have works great for the pupils.
I'm looking forward to getting these guys out on the field this year. Might even pick up another Chaos Warrior (Lord Borak?) or maybe a beastman mutant or metal Minotaur or Troll, although those are getting to be $$$.
Anyway, that's 11 28mm models x5 points each = 55 points.
Great work on these veterans who have spent far too long waiting to be painted (pot calling the kettle black there). I love the Vikings purple colour combo, but these guys definitely need a name/logo/mascot. Have they played their first game yet?
55 points it is
Lovely colours and great looking beasties
