Honestly, these just look like fantasy models, not Blood Bowl (err... fantasy football) players.

Less cheesecake stuff.
Give them some proper shirts and some armour.
the ones in the picture are OK as witch elves, but I would hope any other figures would have CONSIDERABLY more attire.

I know you won't be dissuaded, but I wish you would just make a normal dark elf team. There are already a couple of powderpuff options, and most people don't like the current GW team. There might actually be less competition if you stuck to a mixed gender team.

The Silvania team is currently on my "to-buy" list.

With that in mind I would look for something more armoured/clothed. Something maybe in the style of lingerie football (google in Images). With a bit more clothes. :)

The concept looks good for a witch elf, but for the rest of the team I would be looking for something more covered. I am thinking at least boy-shorts and sports bra. The rest could be achieved by sculpting the armor on.

And as someone has already said: the easiest way to differentiate positionals is by helmet & shourlderpad styles. A second easy way is by how dynamic a model is (I think linewomen are less dynamic than blitzers, for example).

I am with the mixed gender idea, (and this is me the pewter porn king). Bondage elves are done already and the Shadowforge team is really nice. Would need to see more concepts but at the moment this feels overdone. As an aside when do the Sylvania team get catchers?

Pay day is 24/2, will order them then

If you cannot stall out for an 8 turn drive to score with dwarves then you need to go and play canasta with your dad..if you can find him.

Possibly Male Linemen with all female specialists. Or 1 of each sex for positionals.

I'd be happy all female but if it is going to be mixed, male linemen would fit with a drow theme if that is used

All female, but wearing correct armour/playing kit for the respective position.

But I like the concept picture as a Witch Elf.

I agree wholeheartedly. I may even replace my current DE team if I see one like this.

I'm not a DE player, so maybe I'm disqualified from this conversation. But personally I think there's a lot of room for improvement over existing DE models without making them all female.

Ditto. Or a coed Dark Elf team, again not too nudist (except the Runners and Witches, though if you don't cover their junk I'll putty on a loincloth).
