Talk Fantasy Football

Have spent yesterday trying to find some suitable lizarmen figures to convert from warhammer to BB. I have made a team but they look pretty dull and dont inspire me much.

So i am after any ANY help with models: ideas, designs, figures anyone has.

Main problem is painting them. Can only imagine either a natural kit with loin cloth painted and mostly brass / or a bright yellow and blue (egyptian) style kit.
Any help or www links much appreciated

You need to get a plastic box of warhammer skinks and another of Saurus's. they make for great Bloodbowl conversions, the Skinks in particular can look fantastic

Nice!!

I have the boxes myself, but they are after Necromantic and Skaven on my project list.

yep they are pretty cool. Have found some excellent body's on the temple guard - there head and shulder pad is more intresting than the plastics. The pose you have set on most do make the more bloodbowl like which is cool. planned same type of thing but the kit is my problem.

Still main pain in the ass is painting an intresting kit. have considered khemri bits to give more ancient feel but that leads to a blue and yellow paint job every time

So this links to a topic I started a while back:

Another Skink then:


This guy has alot more gold on him, based bestial brown basecoat so it is not 'too' shiny.


What do you think? I think I'm getting the hang of these little critters, alot easier that the Saurus

I am trying to bulk them out and make them look like their are worth their armour value of 9 and still make them look cool.....
(P.S. Sorry about the size of the pics, I recently re-installed paint on my laptop and for some reason it will not save as 'jpegs' and so I am a bit stuck really )

Yep, I love the new GW Plastics....

lizzy conversions probably have best chance of looking great with the lizzy colours and the new look saurus's.

Hmm, not really .

The problem is the stats of BB Saurus vrs the look of the new Saurus plastics. The new figures look awesome, very mobile and agile, very 'lizard-like' and sinewy, and.... not like St4 Ag1 BB Saurus.

The problem is that the original BB stats were based on the old version of the Saurus when the figures were very chunky, slow looking models. Now the new, improved, sleek looking ones have arrived they justy don't seem to fit the bill.

My only solution was to 'bulk them out' with stratigically placed greenstuff and armour:






Maybe not the most lovely looking chap, but alot more like his BB stats....

If Griff were a Saurus, That'd be him.

I like what you did though.

have begun tonight a trial paint scheme.
Kit pink with lizard skin a very weird dark and light blue blend
hope they look kool

Sounds different. Different can be good!

well the pink camp team made top 10 at the bloodbowl finals for best painting. My results were average so looks like im a better painter than player

Got any pics?

No! err maybe someone has them via the finals. they had nice white stars on a pink kit.

(if anyone has them and kind enough chuck a link on
