Yes there is a yard line on grifs base

I absolutely love blood bowl and these are the best painted models ive ever seen for the game, i give you great kudos.

Dante you speak words of wisdom....finding great communities has cemented my re-interest...

Totally agree on the 'hero' thing...owes a lot to the fact you build those characters maybe?

Yeah Migs is off his head I swear...

God yeah been looking at getting some cadians and doing some sorta cult, maybe not Nurgle and Khorne, but that's the only lists right? Not sure, love the randomness and mysticism of Tzeentch...so many projects though...that's proper future...

Keep it up sir!

Great progress mate!

Cheers guys!

@Migs - Good to see you back again, how is work and Sweden treating you?

After consulting with some friends, including Grey_Death, Scarab and JRN (www.jrn-works.dk), we decided the problem was probably that the area around the eyes wasn't shaded enough. Therefore, I've gone back and added some shading there along with some more highlights and a little tidy up here and there. See what you think:



Cheers,

Yes that is a big improvement the toned down muted look works much better and I'm glad you've gone with real flesh rather than Ogre Kingdom style flesh. Griff looks wonderful and I suspect you are really being hyper critical of your own work. The free hand is still exceptional even if it is not quite at the standard of your skin tones in particular I am amazed at the ear lobes on Zug.

Looking great Dante! I can't wait to see the individuality you'll put into the linemen! I'm thinking this team will be a worthy contender at Golden Demon 2010.

Cheers

looks much better that made a huge difference .

Looks brilliant. I wish I could, after some discussion, determine that the only thing wrong with a face I painted was shading around the eyes. And then fix it.

I love checking in on this blog.

Awesome stuff. I'm blown away by the work on the skin. One thing that bothers me though, is the lack of grime. Blood Bowl without bloody brass knuckles and grassy knees just doesn't seem right to me.

More contrast never hurst

I've been really really busy at work and spent the free time on sports to keep sane.

Well the extra shading does help,you have made nice progress on him.Many have said it and I shall say it again,your skintones look awesome!
