#WOOD ELVES BLOOD BOWL CRACK#
Wrapping things up, I realize I haven’t painted any of the tokens or balls for this team … or any of my teams, leaving the door open just a crack for another post about these time. He could be a fresh take on Jordell Freshbreeze I suppose. I guess he would make for a good Dolfar Longstride but I’ve always associated that character more with high elf teams than wood elf teams. I don’t have a specific star player in mind for this model, so I suppose it could be used for any of them really. I love the pose that this model has, almost like he’s showboating as he scores another touchdown mixed with a Gladiator “are you not entertained?!” pose. Then I glued the helmet to the base, allowing for a sturdier connection point for the model. I glued his hoof to a spare human player helmet (again the color of the helmet hinting at my future Old World Alliance team). I know models holding footballs is a hot topic, but I don’t mind personally and I think it helps to distinguish Blood Bowl players from other fantasy warrior miniatures, especially in the case of conversions. I trimmed him away from his scenic base and swapped his sword for the hand from a thrower. Ever since Warhammer Underworlds: Beastgrave came out, I thought this model could make for a wood elf star player conversion. You can get a hint of what my color scheme will be for my future Old World Alliance team by checking out the helmet stuck in the treeman’s branches.Īnd finally another star player conversion. That way I can use the humans, dwarves and halflings I acquired for Blitz Bowl and turn them into an Old World Alliance team for Blood Bowl.
Originally I had intended to use the wood elfy helmet on the treeman, but when I got Blitz Bowl 2 and a halfling bzb team for my birthday I decided to leave the mask off. That is to say a white aspen tree, but instead of fall colors like my sylvaneth warband, to do regular spring/summer green leaves, in this way it would fit in with the white and green colors of my wood elf team but with a more natural look. I decided to paint up my treeman in a similar style to my Warhammer Underworlds sylvaneth warband (which is another covid-19 project i completed in 2020 that I don’t think I’ve blogged about yet … I’ll have to rectify that). It was the treeman’s release that got me motivated to finish the team. After finishing the initial 12 players, I always meant to go back and round out the roaster with some more players and I knew some day GW would release a treeman but it took more than a year for it to come out.
