Should we stick with the current deadline or allow latecomers to contribute until we have a full team's worth of Gobbos?

Make May 1st a hard deadline and send the team out, even if it isn't a full team

The official coordinator is still Milo.
I have just post to update the mini of everyone.

well the checkerboard looks fine to me, but just fyi i think the point was a cincinatti bengals theme. the bengals are the worst team in the american football league, the NFL, so of course what better race to represent them than goblins?!

anyway, their scheme is black and orange, but the look is like a bengal tiger, the helmets are tiger striped and so on.


Here's a link to a site with their helmet design (as well as their stats this season if you're interested in seeing JUST HOW BAD they really are.) :)

http://www.nfl.com/teams/stats/CIN/2002/regular

A lot of "L's" in that score column, just like a gobbo team! :)

Just to have it in this thread as well, here's Milos description from the original thread:
Here's a link to players wearing the Bengals outfits: http://proshop.bengals.com/istar.asp?a= ... 26pos%3D80

I think the best representation of the Bengals scheme would be:

Helmets: Orange with Black Stripes
Shoulderpads / UpperBody: Black with White Letters and Orange Accents
Pants / Loincloths: White with Orange Stripes

Does that sound right to everyone?

Also, how about a team name: The Greenskinatti Bungles?

Well, the stripes aren't great, the highlights are a bit heavy handed (though they look fine at playing distance) and I'm not even going to attempt to pick out all the studs on his shirt in metals (my brushes are too knackered and a couple of them would be too damn fiddly, so better with none picked out), and the base is only getting flocked...but my guy is done. Just sat down this evening and got through it pretty quick. Its amazing how fast you can paint if you put your mind to it and don't expect Eavy metal finishes.

So: Akkin Coff, Greenskinnatti Bungholes no.13 is pretty much ready to take to the astrogranite.

Pics hopefully tommorrow. Depends on my wife getting at the Digital camera at her work.

Thanks, tim, for the helping post !

Well, i think, i will repaint the helmet,but i will keep the squares at his shoulderpad. Take it as a personal style of this player. Maybe he stayed to long at a orc team... :wink:

Shouldn't we agree on a way to finish the bases? If everybody does it the way they always do, it will never get to look like a team. I'd like to use static grass, but I'm not sure that everybody are up to that.

Actually I suggest that we just leave them black. It's not the best solution I think, but it's a way to insure that they will all look identical.

true, i want to ask the same question:)

Static gras would be also my choice.

And darkangel green or black base...or do we use those color codings ?
