I was going to leave the base ring black, but painting it Goblin Green won't be a problem.
Not sure I want to have to buy static grass for one fig...

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.

Did you do it with a stick?

Just joking....

I have a suggestion for you. Im not entering into this, but i suggest you sign the bases of the minis with your names, or tag or something.
I think it would be fun for the one winning to see who painted what and so on. Would add some personal touch.

well the checkerboard looks fine to me, but just fyi i think the point was a cincinatti bengals theme.
Great, this i didnt knew

I´m not in about this NFL liga stuff or any American football background stories.

... Hm, have to repaint .

Traveller

Oh I certainly wouldn't do that. I think the checkerboard is fine, especially now that you already started it. I was just trying to tell the rest of the guys mainly. It was easy to miss that because it was part of the original thread for the legacy team, and as you said there are plenty of guys here who don't know anything about american football.

Anyway, good luck with however you do it.

my gobbo is done! I worked on him all day today and he looks pretty good i think...all that's left is putting the #7 on his back and flocking. Unless someone says otherwise by tomorrow, I'm just putting basic green flock on him. I don't get carried away with bases.

Glad you guys have been making progress without me. I've been moving into a new apartment/unpacking for the last week, which is why I haven't been able to keep up with it too much lately.

Looks like I'll have to get to work on my own miniatures!

You guys like static grass for BB minis? Hmmn. I always thought flock matched the board better. My static grass is a different shade of green and looks funny on the borad...although I'm doing a mini for this, that is unless I have until next year to finish him?

Static grass looks ridiculous unless you weather it by drybrushing it with a lightbrown or similar color. That way you get rid of the shiny look and all the different shades of green.

He's done! Gobbo #7 is ready for action!

I've never put pics on here before, i hope it works.

In case it doesn't, I have it here:

As usual, the sealer makes him look shinier than he is...all in all though I'm pretty happy with him.

yeah you wouldn't want to be the prima donna on a goblin team. that sort of thing usually gets you thrown, or eaten by a troll.

Actually goblins love flying no matter what the launcher.

TBB Legacy Team Progress

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