Skaven Dugout on track

Its been a good day for the hobby. I have spent some time on the skaven dugout and finally put some models in it. I think it will look good good on the next games day. I have the Reserves suitably chained up and waiting for the instruction to get out there and do the business.

For me, its still a bit too Blue. I intend to put a big scoreboard behind it so this should help but ..... I am having the feeling that I will change something. I like the stable area and McMourning coffin area. It was a great suggestion to put some advertising behind the KO'd area. I like it very much and it breaks the whole areas up. Slazenger and Hertz - I will never look at them the same again :-)

I have also been working on my orc cheerleader. So small, but so lovely. It is so difficult to get the detail right and I am finding it good to take pictures on the iPad and then look at where I have issues. So much bigger in the photos. My wife, Sue,  has suggested one of those magnifying glasses under a light. Might be worth thinking about. Anyway I like this babe a lot. She still a name ?

Bull obviously agrees! I do like a male that knows what he wants.

I would like to thank everyone for your constructive contributions. It has been great to see your ideas and then build them into the final model. Thanks guys I really appreciate your input. I do love the hobby and the proactive way that people are prepared to contribute.

Secret Project - Orc Cheerleader

Well sports fans there is a lot to be said for these match making websites. Coach Bullcher has been looking for some female companionship for some time. Someone to raise his spirits and cheer on the team.

Bull has been on that very famous dating website 'ebay' for ages and the usual candidates have been hanging around.

They were just not for him. Lets face it - not very attractive and the 'letting it all hang out' look was not particularly flattering. I expect these girls have black eyes by the end of the match!

Things took a turn for the better last week. Bull spotted a likely candidate in the listings. Bids were made and before I knew it the post man came a calling. She is listed as a 28mm resin figure - Fantasy Football Greenskin Orc Cheerleader Blood Bowl model. A proper orc female and very attractive. In truth she looks like a cross between an elf and an orc - all lithe and lean.

Companionship!! Love is in the air.

I love the model. Over the last few days I have started to paint her up and am really enjoying it. She has been given pride of place on one of the Malifaux bases.

The model itself is really small. It is advertised as 28mm but ..... however in a world where there are practically no decent female orc models it is a welcome addition to the team. I can definitely see that she will raise team spirits :-)

I have also spotted a model from Impact Miniatures that looks good but I prefer this one.
