For this week, I have something a bit different then what I usually post. There is a game called Blood Bowl that my brother and I play and have been playing for a few years. Imagine a football game where Orcs and Humans play one another, a game with very few rules and a lot of foul play.
Here is a shot of the game in action.
You can see the grid on the field where you can move your players. Each player has different skills, strengths, and weaknesses. It is a bit like chess, although there are dice rolls that can really impact your team and how it does.
Speaking of teams, here is mine. They are the Azyr Flying Aces, a team that I made up for the game. They look a little too much like the Patriots for my taste (really dislike Tom Brady) but oh well.
You can see the different players in the models. There are throwers, catchers, blitzers, and lineman. The big guy in the back is an Ogre, who needs some paint. The other larger guy is…
…this guy, the Mighty Zugg. He is a specially skilled player who you can have on your team. He was really fun to paint and I was happily with how he can out, especially the face.
Next up is the Ogre, who needs some paint. But you can see what the models look like when they are first built, just bare plastic.
Once he is primed (an all over coat of paint so other paints will adhere to the model) I will paint him up so he fits with the other players. He will likely be my next post.
