There's some fantastic work in this thread. Surprised I never saw it earlier.

I really need to make the jump to green stuff.

Marneus Calgar is referred to as "one of the Imperium's greatest tacticians" and he treats the Codex like it's the War Bible. If the Codex is garbage, then how bad is everyone else?

Well, he didn't place (oh well), but I've got the next entry in progress - the subject is squads... So, I've got an IG command squad ready for painting (pics to follow). The models are a mix of new and old - with a few non-gw bits replaced to help it 'fit in'.

I never even started the command squad painting and Blood Bowl has taken over my life instead!

So far I have the parts for an Elf and Dwarf team, plus a modelled Norse, Skaven, Dark Elf, Orc and Chaos Pact teams. I've also ordered a Necromantic team from Vortice Miniatures - very pretty looking minis (as a straight painting team - no conversions). I also have my eye on the minis from Black Scorpion, the price is amazing and the minis have great detail (I'm interested in the new Amazon team - if they did a more 'normal' (not quite such big hats) it would be an automatic buy for me).

The Pact team is the one I have got farthest on, with the first XI well on the way (pics below).

The Norse Team (only Boris fully painted)...
]

The Dark Elf Team (one runner and lineman fully painted)...


The Skaven Team (just the gutter runners shown)...


The Chaos Pact Team (making progress...)







I'll post a few of my prototype models (human, dwarf etc) at some point. Apologies for the rubbish pics (taken on my phone in poor light!)

Cheers

There is some truly amazing conversions here and totally original looking models, I have only gone back 2 pages and was like

Really loving the IG so much character squeezed into each mini great colour scheme and clever use of individual kits.

As for your blood bowl teams I love the fact you are creating your own from kits, I actually thought the Norse team was actual models at first then realised they were conversions.
Once again you have captured the look of actual game players more so than most of the official models, plus they look like a proper team.
I can't wait to see more and each team expand and grow, I can see some awesome conversion be created from this project.
Plus your posing is very dramatic and the representation of movement is spot on, I have enjoyed what I have seen so far and look forward to reading through this thread properly totally subbed

Thanks for all the positives Lone dirty dog - much appreciated. I love converting models more than painting (and any big army I try never gets finished!). I'll take some picks of my orc team soon. I have a human and dwarf player to show off too.
A few team names for you...

Chaos Pact - Drakwald Strange Attractors
Skaven - Cripple Peak Cutters
Dark Elf - Bad for your Elf
Norse - All the Rage
Orc - Green Crag Smashers

With a necromantic team on the way - The Graveyard Smash (complete with Monster Mash team song).

Cheers

LOL love it I like that you are "going the extra yard" so to speak with the naming, but the "Bad for your Elf "has to be my favourite

Can't wait to see the others and what you have done to create them, how about a mixed team ? All Star Species

I had thought about a 'Good' Pact Team (as a counts as Chaos Pact team) - that could work... The Confederation of Gallant Gentlemen (you're going to get me building a new team!)

Ogre = Ogre
Treeman = Troll/Minotaur
Goblin = Halfling
Dark Elf = Wood Elf
Skaven = Dwarven Runner (not the best fit - but perhaps he wear no armour and is freakishly fast for a dwarf, so doesn't fit in to other teams)
Marauder = Human

Not sure what to make the final big guy from the warhammer world (I have a Mierce Dragonman which might work) - possibly some kind of Dwarven Construct perhaps.

Another possibility is to build and old school dungeonbowl team - but I want something playable.

Cheers (Orcs coming soon)

Could you not build a Dwarf steam runner to fit the role ?

Maybe something along the lines of this picture or you could try Titan Forge, they have some interesting Dwarf steam characters.

Either way looking forward to this getting off the ground along with those Orks

Very cool, is that just green stuff?

Yes - that's greenstuff on his headgear and a little on his kneepads. I wrapped strips of GS around the head, leaving the eyes clear and then reshaped it with a hard clay shaper - I was pretty pleased with the outcome.

More bloodbowl photos coming soon (Orcs and Necromantic)

Cheers

I thought I was going to see some Orcs then never mind I can wait patiently

Here they are - I had to head off to work this morning and ran out of time to post them!

Orcs and Necromantic

Orcs... (not likely to get paint soon)
Gobbo


Black Orcs


Orc Throwers


Orc Blitzers


The Whole Team (Still needs a Troll)


Varag Ghoulchewer - Star Player


Necros...
Werewolf (Test Piece)



The Whole Team


No conversions with the Necromantic, the minis are lovely - from Vortice Miniatures - super casts, in resin (so much better than metal!). The only thing better would be plastic sprue blood bowl minis, for max conversion potential - I dream of the day when GW do team boxes on sprues for a new, improved blood bowl!

Anyway - that will never happen.

Cheers
Laney
