For context, I do have somewhat experience in painting models for Warhammer 40,000 and Age of Sigmar. Plus I have painted various terrain pieces for Kill Team.

Sadly, I cannot for the life of me sit down and paint my teams. I think it's all the padding and armor, that or they're smaller than my usual type of models (Orks, Necrons, Stormcast, Seraphon, and Soulblight).

I've gotten to roughly paint half of my lizardmen, but every other team I can't get past the painting phase. My Skaven and Tomb Kings are as of right now unprimed.


Does anyone have any advice on how to paint Tomb Kings and Skaven? Their designs seem more intricate than normal. Do people generally look down on unpainted models in Bloodbowl?

It also could be Summer, I hate the heat, but I'm worried about running out of time to get them painted to draw the interest of my local gaming group and others who maybe interested in the game. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818940/11821230.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818940/11821230.page GMT (Bloodbowl) I have four teams and no painted models. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818940/11821235.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818940/11821235.page GMT (Bloodbowl) I have four teams and no painted models.

I would suggest getting their main colour down as a spray (bone? bandages? whatever the main colour is for you rats), giving it a drybrush and leaving it for now. its better than grey plastic and they will look like boardgame pieces, so you are half way there. Basic basing to match the pitch would be good as well.


I generally just prime in Rustoluem that I find at Walmart. But then they just all remain black and I can't sit down and paint them. I'd figure that they would be easier to spot out what position they are if they're left gray instead of painting black like my Bretonnians are atm.

For the Tomb Kings they came in a tan plastic color so I'd figure I would keep them like that until I have a color scheme in mind and/or the art skill to do all their tiny details. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818940/11821250.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818940/11821250.page GMT (Bloodbowl) I have four teams and no painted models.
Tomb Kings: Prime black. Dry brush bone color for bandages and bone.

In general, no. Blood Bowlers don't mind unpainted stuff. Be sure to make the player's number clear if you're doing a league. I like silver sharpie on the base. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818940/11821264.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818940/11821264.page GMT (Bloodbowl) I have four teams and no painted models. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818940/11821372.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818940/11821372.page GMT
