Fantastic job on both but I think the green scheme melds better

I like them both. For a team of Halflings though, I would go with the more earthy colors of green/yellow/brown.

If you are making more, don't make them with piss pots and pans on their heads. Thats played, imho. I know quite a few members will say "thats what halflings do. Its in the fluff..." Well, no, its not in any fluff(I had this argument with a club mate. He said its "fluffy" to have halflings wearing cookwear. I contend SOME halfling teams would wear better kit.)

I think a halfling team with proper kit would be cool. I'd buy a team.

Even though GW themselves made the original figures with cooking pot helmets? A definite requirement when we did 'pro flings' on FUMBBL!

I like the plum and mustard yellow, but I'd probably go for a slightly different colour armour.

I get that, mouse. But I for one, would like a halfling team with proper kit.

I understand not everyone would like that. But like I said, the piss pots and cookwear is played.

Plum and yellow are the best combo, but the blue armour doesn't quite look right with them, as Harvestmouse says above.

Hi guys, thank for the replies.
@bound for glory: they are a "serious" team. Some minis are little more characteristics(you'll see soon) but il pretty much a football team

@sokomano: later i'll post a pics of new two minis and a comparison with classic gw halfling
