Dark Elf Blood Bowl team painted

Ohoi ye Faithful!

Today I finished my DE team, the aptly named Chainflail Cockboilers, well missing the coach and cheerleader but the team is set for varnish. Camera pics as usual and some of the inks come off a tad shiny here before the varnish - I was going for a bleak and somewhat dark feeling resembling a Elf team on the back of one of the BB tomes of my youth. I have a solution in mind for the numbers and colour distinction on the bases.

I hope you like them!!

Details - note the runner wears a watch, time is of the essence :)

Blood Bowl revisited - Dark Elves repainted


 Hello my faithful readers!! ;)

I decided to repaint my Dark Elf team, which I acquired some years ago when I got back into the hobby. Since then my paint style have evolved and more players have joined and I also wanted a more uniform look throughout the team. I'm going for a weathered brass, black clothes, pale blueish skin and metal studs on the black leather. I will be trying out the oxide wash I bought some months back and also tying the bases together with some wash.


Before repaint - the ones to the left are the old paint job w a light flesh airbrushed over their original blue skin.

I'm not entirely happy with the result of the wash but I will give a metal highlight on top when I paint the skin tones and details. I also have plans for a decorative motif on the bases for the numbers.

Comments are always welcome!!!

Oh the teams includes blitzers, lineman, runners, assassin and a witch elf + coach Chainflail and the cheerleader turn marker Penny Dreaders.

Thanks for viewing :)
