Lissanne's June Bloodbowl- Wildcard month- Dusty Odds and Ends

 

 
Did I get the oversize stadium done?  No.  But I did do the two entry towers for the teams, a ref and a concession stand.  This is the month of painting things gathering dust for a decade +.

 These two towers have been sitting about forever, and I always intended for them to be part of my Bloodbowl stadium.  They got a refresher paint job.  Not difficult, as they were grey to begin with.  But done.



 Another thing sitting about for decades and decades was this Giant.  I got it for free, but always thought it was a bit lame.  But I just got the bright idea to make him a ref.  A really big ref.  It only took a little bit of conversion on the sword hand to make it work.  And it is a storm giant for game play.



 


Rat on a stick!  Rat on a stick!  With or without fur and bits.
 The concession stand began life as an unassembled Lionel lumber yard.  A neighbor gave it to me when she moved, and it also has been sitting about for a decade.  It is full of running gags from our D&D game, where the Bloodbowl games take place.  Cleric Skye Pilot has been running a concession stand, which has expanded.  Originally it was just Rat on a stick.  We had an adventure where low levels were collecting rats for the Rat on a stick franchise.


 There are team flags with nice sturdy 2 x 4's so you can show the opposing fans you support your team in a real and personal way!  Temporary creations from Charade, most of these get broken over the heads of fans anyway.

 Wild Turkey sake, mage Wild Turkey started a local sake farm when he found rice (long story).  The town drink.  Another character started a cranberry bog, so there is cranberry flavored sake.  Run by Wendy, another cleric.
Fruity drinks for the kids- (with only a little sake),  This one came out of my mouth during gameplay, as my grandma the flapper used to say it.  She thought it was ok for kids to drink, LOL!  It has become a recurring phrase in gameplay.  

And I modified some art I did for a failed wargame into Hooligan's posters.  The Hooligans are the home team.  And the Rat on a Stick franchise is mobile.  I told you it was popular, so will get used in other places.


  So with that ends my OWAC.  Getting some of the stadium done is better than none!

  2. Massive giant ref for the win - he might fry the odd player if he gets his specs out on a sunny day to review the rules or summat! 🔍🔥💀😂

  4. I love the giant! You might have to rewrite the "get the ref" result in the kickoff table though. Awesome month

    1. It would either become a null result, or some injuries would happen. Not to the ref though, LOL!

  6. Bags of fun! The giant ref is a really great idea to make use of an otherwise unloved mini, and the in-jokes on the concession stands are all great. Love it! :D
