Pact to the Future: Phase one complete!

Greetings all,

I've reached a bit of a milestone this week, albeit a fairly small one. I've managed to complete "phase one" of my Chaos Renegades team! Essentially this means I've painted a whole team, counters, and now coaching staff too. Given that I started putting these guys together about a year ago, I'm pretty happy with that. Now the reason it's only phase one, is that I have a handful of mutants, star players, and journeymen still to do, but none of those are required immediately to play the team, so they'll follow in phase two.

I'm pretty pleased with the achievement, even though it is a fairly modest one. I've been in something of a hobby slump for a while now (and still am tbh), so having something "complete" is pretty satisfying. At times it has been a bit of a grind to paint them, but overall I'm happy with how it all turned out.

Without further ado, some pictures!

The newest additions, the coaching staff:



And now some pics of the team as a whole, starting with the Renegades:


The humans:


The Big Guys:


Finally the markers, and all the team together:




I'm delighted to have these guys finished (not that they'll be seeing the table for a while, seeing as the world has ended and all that). I'm thinking of taking a little hobby break soon, but nothing too major. Just a couple weeks or so to come back feeling refreshed and revitalised, rather than seeing all this as a job that needs doing. I've got a few bits here and there that I want to finish off first though, so I wont be going anywhere just yet.

Anyway, in the meantime let me know what you think!

Pact to the Future: the last of the Renegades

Greetings all.

Another quick post from me, as per usual. I've managed to spend some of my limited hobby time finishing off the last of the Renegades for my team. With these guys done, I now have a full squad of "normal" players. I still need to finish off the coaching staff, and then move on to phase two (mutants and star players), but I'm getting there!

First up, Jizmak Da Gusha, the Orc Renegade:



And my Skaven Renegade, Oderus Urungus.



Once I'm done with the coaching staff, I'll get some decent pics of the whole team together too.

Feels good to have these guys done, as it means I now have a second fully painted Blood Bowl team to play with. Till next time!
