Stabitty! Stabitty!

This is a wicked looking pair of Dark Elf Assassins from Gaspez Arts that were custom ordered for a Dark Elf Blood Bowl Team that I am finishing up.  These nasties run up to the opposing players, and instead of throwing a block on them, can stab them instead with their assassin blades! (Ouch!!) If they pick-up the skill "multiple block" they can run up to TWO players on the opposing team and... Stabitty! Stabitty! Very annoying!

Assassin number 15 has his blades in the 'upright' position ready to do a 'lung punch' on an unsuspecting victim!

Assassin number 16 has his blades down, ready to sneak up behind and do a throat cut, or hit a major artery in the neck! Wicked little DElves!

Wight Delight!

This is the last post on this Undead Team, and the client (the nine year old son of an active coach) has been given "pre-view" pics and is most excited to receive his belated Christmas present from his dad!

The last two team members are officially "wights" on the team, but are really more of a wraith with scythe-looking-thingy-arms...

 
Truthfully, when the team was delivered to me for painting, I immediately saw these two positionals (core team members), and could not wait to get my brush on them!

These guys had to have the arms pinned, and the drilling took quite a bit of effort as the arms were just barely thick enough to accommodate my pin-vice; but more challenging was the need to bend the arms at the 'elbows' without damaging the arms!

 
The result, however, I think is rather dramatic... and I feel incredibly sorry for anyone on the opposing team who has to try and mark-up on one of these guys!
(Is there a rule for "apparitional fear" where a player must take a leadership test when [if failed] must be immobilized for the turn after wetting their pants?)
There SHOULD BE with these guys! LOL!!

 
Here is the whole team, finished and ready for delivery!
Tell me what you think!

Ghoulish Blue Hue!

Today we have four Ghouls painted in a very Ghouley Blue Hue!  Of all the minis on this Undead Blood Bowl Team my client has me doing... these are my second favorite minis!  Very cool poses!

 
Ghoul number five must have caught the head from the Zombie thrower that was being tossed down field... or, he took it off of another team-mate in order to distract the opposition!
 
 
 Ghoul number six has a definite "Bring it on!" stance that I love!
 
Ghoul number seven seems to be pointing at someone on the opposite team, with his tongue hanging out, almost as if to say, "You're next!" as he licks his chops!
 
 
Ghoul number eight is all business, ready to hunt you down at a movement of seven spaces! (which is pretty fast for an undead team!)
 
 
Thanks to the team owner for commissioning me to paint these ghoulish guys...
Good Fun!

The Skillette's On!

Years ago, someone asked me, "What do you get when you cook the meat off of a body for an autopsy?" I replied, "I have no idea!" They then said (with a smug smirk), "An M.E. asking in frustration 'Who left the Skillette on?'!"  Yeah... REALLY bad joke!  But it applies here with the Skillette-ons *wink* from the Blood Bowl team I am finishing up!

The first skeleton has a menacing "block" stance look like he is ready to stop the line from coming through all on his own! (The "mad-dog-one-eye" look doesn't hurt!)
 
The second is my favorite!!! Arm up in the air, victorious after knocking down (or intimidating) the opposition into submission!

The last of the trio has a pose like he is calling down on Nuffle himself to influence the die in such a way, that he will get a positive result for a knock-down! LOL

Here are the three of them, ready to throw down (or scare you out of town) and send you running home to mommy!
 
One of the more FAMOUS skeletons... Achmed as Santa!

Zombies Eat Brains... You're Safe! :D

With the rage about Zombies in the pop culture over the last few years, I thought I would share these crazy looking Zombies from the team I have been commissioned to paint... these are Gaspez Arts Zombie Sculpts for a Blood Bowl Undead Team.

This first guy happened to pull his own arm off in order to use it as an atlatl!
(You can see this guy at Cool Mini or Not!)

Player number thirteen has kicked the ball, and had it inadvertently land on his head! LOL!!!
(This one is also at Cool Mini or Not!)

This poor sap is so busy trying to tuck his insides from the outside, his hands are full!
(...also at Cool Mini or Not!)

This last one is trying to confuse the opposition by tossing his own grape down the field instead of the ball...
perhaps if he is playing Orcs, or Gobbos, he might convince them!
(Vote at Cool Mini or Not!)

Here are all four of these guys together--great minis!!!

Mum's the Word!

Today's post are two mummies that I was commissioned to do for a client who is playing an Undead team in a Real Life Blood Bowl League!  These hard hitting undead beasts only move four spaces but they pack a punch at a strength of five!

These two are from a line-up of Undead designed specifically for Blood Bowl from Gaspez Arts!
 
These players really provide the back-bone for the line on an undead team, and while I like the pose of mummy number one with his fist up in the air...

I particularly like this "I am coming after you!" pose by mummy number two!

Just in case there is any question as to a mummy's nastiness:
