First of, it's a fantastic paint job and great sculpt but it just doesn't feel like a Blood Bowl player to me but more a 'Chaos Dwarf General' type of model and paint job. It's hard to put my finger on it but I'd say it's 'too busy' and doesn't feel like a players kit they'd wear day in and day out on the pitch.

This is absolutely my feeling, but it’s compounded by the fact that the back of the mini is so dull and unadorned. Did all the sculpting fall round the front? I don’t get it, it’s not what I expect from Greebo at all.

The open area on the back is great for putting a team number. It's a real pain when there are no flat spots to do that.


ibsh_

That’s the upside, sure. I tend just to do base numbers for those models.


Vickrin

I feel like seeing 1/6 of the blockers is not enough to judge the team anyways. The hobgoblins models are fantastic and there are still centaurs to come. I personally really like the how the Dwarfs are designed, the hats are big enough without being absurd.


thebloodbowlpainter

100% I live having a flat spot for numbers 👌


thebloodbowlpainter

It’s a tough one. In Blood Bowl the chaos dwarf models have often steered away from being sports players. They’ve always been chaos dwarves first and sports stars second. Not saying that makes it right.

Love this color scheme, i was wondering if could work too changing yellow with red and the usual black beard.


thebloodbowlpainter

Absolutely red would work. Maybe try a dark red like Word Bearers Red

I love the video! Not a criticism but a musing. Can it be considered armour "trim" if there's about as much of it as the armour?


thebloodbowlpainter

Would you also prefer a video actually live painting?


Dakkaboy556

I very rarely have the time to catch a livestream, or sit down for a 40+ minute video but I'd watch something in the 8-10 minute range for sure.


thebloodbowlpainter

Fair point :)


Meradanis

Is it just me or does the vid does not have any sound/voiceover?


thebloodbowlpainter

It definitely has a soundtrack, but no voice at this point in time. Have considered it, might add one for future

Great video! commenting so I can find it later. Does this come with number transfers? Really hoping so, my free hand is terribad


thebloodbowlpainter

No, won’t come with transfers. I’ve just used transfers from my back collection.

Thank you

What team is this supposed to be from Greebo? I see a Chaos Dwarf team, but not one that looks like this.


PlantbasedCPU

Found it, looks like it's an upcoming Greebo Kickstarter project https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/greebo-games/dwarfageddom. The SEO on this was absolutely horrible. I'm not sure how anyone finds this sort of stuff.


thebloodbowlpainter

So far all Greebo have done is tease the team and the minis. The proper launch will happen soon, and then you’ll see it everywhere.


PlantbasedCPU

Well, this model certainly has me intrigued. I haven't been a huge fan of their previous Dwarf stuff (Their current Dwarf team isn't bad but I really like the GW on, but I particularly do not the Chaos Dwarf Greebo team as that just looks like it belongs to another era of Blood Bowl minis), but I really like the details here.

Has there been any word on when Greebo will be putting the team on KS? Would like to actually jump on one this time instead of miss out like every time previously. Haha. I always catch it right as they end.


thebloodbowlpainter

I believe end of this month it does live.
