Sam's All Star BloodBowl League - The Star Players

The last few months have been pretty hectic with work but I was determined to stay in the challenge and finish my BB quest. Last month saw me have to throw down the mulligan and this month was a down to the wire kind of situation. So, with the limited time I had I though that the Star Player month would be the best way to go. Low model count and each one being individual so better to paint one by one in a start to finish approach for some definitive progress each time.


Star Players really were the lynchpin of the characterful atmosphere of 3rd Ed. BB and they really gave each team a centerpiece model to work around from an aesthetic perspective. All of them have such amazing sculpts and associated artwork. And as I’m aiming to have a complete set of everything for my All-Star League, they really are the center of the concept.

During this challenge I will be painting Chaos, Dwarf, Human and Undead teams so the Star Players I focused on were those that fit those teams. The only missing one that I’m still hoping to find (for a reasonable price) is the Death Roller.

Enter the Players:

First up the infamous Lord Borak the Despoiler

 



Next up the unstoppable Grim Ironjaw

 



The undeniable Count Luthor von Drakenborg



The unparalleled Griff Oberwald



The Might Zug



And finally, no All-Star BB league would be complete without the iconic Morg ’n’ Thorg




Peace Out

Sam

  5. I think you knocked (kicked?) this out of the park! The paint jobs are great and they would absolutely be the centrepieces of any team they lead :)
