Part I | Part III
| Part IV
Haven't painted properly in a long time but it's rewarding being back even though I'm a bit rusty. These are the very first "human like" models I ever painted. Only done goblins, orcs, squigs, lizardmen and such. I started on my wood elves but never got to the skin and such.
Here are the first 5, 11 to go but they are on their way.
They aren't golden deamon but far better than bare plastic. Will do fine on the table. Think I should 'ardcoat them or seal them when they got their numbers painted on. So that the paint won't rub off from use.
Witch Elves
Being the first human like models I found out about the struggles of faces, eyes and hair.
It probably would have been better to do the hair with a wash or something but feeling a bit rushed trying to finish this team before new year I just bashed on with what I've done before.
Runners
More scantily clad players.
Vials for potions and some mysterious goldish container and other stuff. Was thinking about painting the cloth ribbons with special colours referencing skills since so many models have these cloth bits but not sure if it's all that practical anymore.
Assassin
On to the a bit more controversial piece. Was quite sure I wouldn't include a assassin but after hearing "Anything but a one" talk about dark elves and recommending taking one or two for them being a fun piece to play with. I got a bit more welcoming.
Bit unclear if it's suppose to be a vial at his belt but painted it blue to add a bit more colour rather than more brown.
Not sure what I'll do about the bases but will I'll ask the coach and figure it out when the rest of the players are done.
The Caledor Dragons High Elf Blood Bowl Team Reveal
I did not expect to see Blood Bowl news this early in the year. In the recent past when we have had early news, it has been because we missed the late year or Christmas drop. But I'm not complaining. If Games Workshop are trying to capitalise on the excitement built up by the release of the new edition, then there might be more ahead in the pipeline. High Elves were the last of the old offical teams that hadn't received new models since the 2016 re-release of Blood Bowl. With the team I'm about to introduce, Games Workshop are now fully up to date*. Let me present to you, 'The Caledor Dragons' High Elf Team. First thing to note, these are lovely models. I like really like them, however, their realistic proportions suggests a new sculptor who might not be experienced in using Games Workshop's heroic scale. They are tall and slender as High Elves should be, but when we compare them to other models, even other elf variants, they still seem too tall. Their h...
