I don't really like the FUMBBL one for a real life pitch as it's too plain. If I can get that then the long overdue Travel Bloodbowl can start production (and there's a free set to the dugout artist!! )

Whats the dimensions on the printed dugout area?

My newest version... prints out on 4 A3 sheets. Need to do the range ruler for it yet put that's just scaling.

Pug, what size do you want/ what layout do you need. All this is do-able with realistic looking stuff but graphics folks need sizes to work with. And with all new artwork, there would be no copyright issues. It would be all new.

Give us some ideas on the sizes you are working with and I (at least ) would do some mock-ups for you.

Cheers!

A version with weathertable on your site Mr Brown?

Just wondering when or if you'll finishing this board? (design that is)
Cause going to put my little brother on making one and would be sad if you made a even better version (4 better versions so far) just efter I've started.

Sorry for the delay in new posts, I have been working on a high resolution version which is currently at the printers. I will post some pics when I get it back. I will also be taking it to the BB next weekend so people can see it there.

I have also been working on a pitch that will be a prize at Thrudbowl this year. I can't post anything here, but Frank will have some bits up at the BB

I will get a newer version of the pitch uploaded tonight.

Ibsonthegrey: I would like to see more contrast between the crosses marking the square boundaries on the field and the grass. Perhaps white crosses?

Here is a lo-res version of the pitch I currently have at a printers. It is also on the download site.

Can do (it's on a seperate layer) but the contrast effect is a remnant of shrinking the pic. At full size, it's quite easy to see. Here's a section of the field at full size. I think you can see the markers quite easily and like the more subtle effect.

Is this more to your liking? I think even more subtle coloring might be on order as not to detract from the field itself.

Cheers!

Yeah, I suppose you're right, it's a lot clearer at full size.

If you were at the BB last weekend, you might have seen me using my pitch. I have taken some pics so you can see the printed product:

The next step is to mount it on a board. I am going to be adventurous and try and make a hinged board!

mrbrownesquire - nice to meet you at the BB, and that pitch looked fantastic on the table. Have you had any thoughts on a 7s board like we talked about briefly?

I have had a look at a 7s ptch and it should be quite easy to put one together. I will try and get one done for download soon. Still a bit busy with the Thrudbowl pitch though!

And I'm looking forward to that, too.
